Fred Drake 3764b6b67e Fix the way we found relevant cfuncdesc lines; PREFIX was not a regular 
expression!
 2000-09-22 17:55:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 38178fd951 use_sans_serif(), 
use_italics():  Remove both functions, inlining use_italics() at its
                only call site.

init_myformat():  Uncomment line so that some internal markup does not
                  get generated, since it is not properly removed later.
                  (Fix on aspect of SourceForge bug #114749.)

Modified call to process_commands_wrap_deferred(), removing \code from
the list since it had a bad interaction with other changes in some contexts.
 2000-09-22 17:05:04 +00:00

Neil Schemenauer 544de1effb - Add DEBUG_SAVEALL option. When enabled all garbage objects found by the 
collector will be saved in gc.garbage.  This is useful for debugging a
  program that creates reference cycles.

- Fix else statements in gcmodule.c to conform to Python coding standards.
 2000-09-22 15:22:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 343ad7a572 Correct some bitrot; some things have become inaccurate in the tutorial. 
<file>.readlines() does not call <file>.readline() internally anymore,
and the sizehint parameter should be mentioned briefly.

Some displays of floating point numbers needed to be updated due to the
change in the repr() of floats (from 1.6).

Both issues were noted by Aahz <aahz@panix.com>.
 2000-09-22 04:12:27 +00:00
Fred Drake f89259786a Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>: 
Show how code can be written to handle __getslice__ & friends in a way that
is compatible with pre-2.0 versions of Python while still working with the
"new" way of handling slicing.

Additional explanation added by Fred Drake.

This closes SourceForge patch #101388.
 2000-09-21 22:27:16 +00:00

 2000-09-21 21:35:22 +00:00
Fred Drake cb0a0b3e80 New text about how to report bugs in Python and the documentation. 2000-09-21 21:32:14 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 3578b77312 Special case the "s#" PyArg_Parse() token for Unicode objects: 
"s#" will now return a pointer to the default encoded string data
of the Unicode object instead of a pointer to the raw UTF-16
data.

The latter is still available via PyObject_AsReadBuffer().
 2000-09-21 21:08:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 1bf4e93180 Convert the longest two tables from tableii to longtableii so they do not 
make too big a mess.  One actually did not fit on a single page at all!
 2000-09-21 16:04:08 +00:00
Fred Drake da72b93a01 Add new environments: longtableii, longtableiii, and longtableiv, to 
support long tables which might break across page boundaries.  Otherwise
identical to tableii, tableiii, and tableiv.
 2000-09-21 15:58:02 +00:00

macros in the argument list position.
 2000-09-21 15:53:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 31575ce817 Note that __getitem__() may receive a slice object as the index; 
reported by Detlef Lannert <lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>.
 2000-09-21 05:28:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 02997491c1 Document directories are not always named with three characters any more; 
reported by Detlef Lannert <lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>.
 2000-09-21 05:26:43 +00:00
Fred Drake fffe5dbc47 Fixed a number of small problems reported by Detlef Lannert 
<lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>.
 2000-09-21 05:25:30 +00:00
Fred Drake df84facf0d .use_latex(): Make this a little smarter so that it only runs pdflatex 
once if all the temporary files are available from building
               a DVI file.  This can avoid two runs of pdflatex.
 2000-09-20 05:49:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 51f53df4c8 Clarify that the softspace attribute is used by print for state management, 
not as a user-controlled parameter.
 2000-09-20 04:48:20 +00:00
Fred Drake f5aa4ef07c Add entries for the xml.sax documentation. 2000-09-20 02:54:58 +00:00
Fred Drake e10ef74bb8 First cut at documentation for the xml.sax package (not including any 
sub-modules).
 2000-09-20 02:52:20 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg d1ba443206 This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize() 
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.

The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890.

As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.

Fred Drake 8d27f898b2 Moshe Zadka <mzadka@geocities.com>:

 2000-09-19 18:21:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 1156f62348 Many small clarifications, including many suggested by email. 2000-09-19 18:10:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 02c7082745 make_nav_sectref(): Create more minimal HTML, hanging the class attribute 
off an existing anchor tag if available (I think it
                     always is, but am not completely sure).
 2000-09-19 15:36:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 752ba39a0b Clarify a number of issues about the file-like object API based on
