Fred Drake 82f355a36a Change the example of configuring for large file support under Solaris

 1998-07-23 19:50:09 +00:00
Fred Drake b91e934cf1 Adjusted to use the new module synopsis support macros. 1998-07-23 17:59:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e729ec31a Caught a few more spurious \setindexsubitem macros.... 1998-04-07 22:06:41 +00:00

Fred Drake 3a0351cf85 Remove all uses of \sectcode; we can now use logical markup everywhere. 1998-04-04 07:23:21 +00:00
Fred Drake d275de985a Remove obsolete lines like this: 
\setindexsubitem{(in module frobnitz)}

These are no longer needed when present before any other \setindexsubitem{}
in the module section.  The indexsubitem is now set by \bimodindex and
\stmodindex.
 1998-04-04 05:56:51 +00:00
Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain, 
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.

 1998-03-11 05:29:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 86b5dcec86 Change {datadesc} environments with empty descriptions to \dataline{}s; this 
removes extra vertical space from the list of names, and makes the display
more similar to that used in the socket module, where several constants share
a description.
 1998-02-13 21:55:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous 
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
 1998-02-13 06:58:54 +00:00
