Guido van Rossum 83c03e2d94 Add import sys, needed by reference to sys.exc_info() in rmtree(). 
Discovered by Mitch Chapman.

Fred Drake b6cf9a4fc4 Script to help identify undocumented modules. Use -h or --help for 
usage information.

Fred Drake 8cdee961bf Dictionaries are created using the "{...}" notation, not the "..." 
notation.  Problem reported by Magnus L. Hetland <mlh@idt.ntnu.no>.

Guido van Rossum 3366d1c7e6 # Typo in docstring (Retrun -> Return). 1999-02-23 18:34:43 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 3f2c383a7e Now that we don't have AC_CHECK_LIB(m, pow), the HAVE_LIBM symbol 
disappears.  It wasn't used anywhere anyway...
 1999-02-23 18:07:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3791b0de36 Carefully check for overflow when allocating the memory for fromfile 
-- someone tried to pass in sys.maxint and got bitten by the bogus
calculations.
 1999-02-23 18:05:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 24f8579ee4 Get rid of AC_CHECK_LIB(m, pow) since this is taken care of later with 
LIBM (from --with-libm=...); this actually broke the customizability
offered by the latter option.  Thanks go to Clay Spence for reporting
this.

Guido van Rossum 74ee886409 1. Print the error message (carefully) when a dl.open() fails in verbose mode. 
2. When no test case worked, raise ImportError instead of failing.
 1999-02-23 17:58:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 264bd59221 1. Clarify that immutability isn't entirely the same as unchangeable 
value (because of immutable containers containing mutable objects).

2. Document that func_code, func_defaults and func_doc / __doc__ are
now writable.

Guido van Rossum 124eff0225 Patch by Tim Peters to improve the range checks for range() and 
xrange(), especially for platforms where int and long are different
sizes (so sys.maxint isn't actually the theoretical limit for the
length of a list, but the largest C int is -- sys.maxint is the
largest Python int, which is actually a C long).

Guido van Rossum 717d1fdf2a 1. Augment the DG/UX rule so it doesn't break the BeOS build. 
2. Add $(EXE) to various occurrences of python so it will work on
   Cygwin with egcs (after setting EXE=.exe).  These patches by
   Norman Vine.

Guido van Rossum 027188a382 According to Jeffrey Honig, bsd/os 2.0 - 4.0 should be added to the 
list (of bsd variants that have a different lock structure).
 1999-02-23 04:14:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5ef8f0c3c7 According to Jeffrey Honig, bsd/os 4.0 should be added to the list. 1999-02-23 04:13:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c222ec28a5 Patch by Tadayoshi Funaba (with some changes) to be smarter about 
guessing what happened when strftime() returns 0.  Is it buffer
overflow or was the result simply 0 bytes long?  (This happens for an
empty format string, or when the format string is a single %Z and the
timezone is unknown.)  if the buffer is at least 256 times as long as
the format, assume the latter.

Fred Drake 1ec71cb556 Incorporated updates to describe geturl() by Sjoerd Mullender 
<Sjoerd.Mullender@cwi.nl>.
 1999-02-22 22:42:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4505895e68 As Des Barry points out, we need to call pathname2url(file) in two 
calls to addinfourl() in open_file().

Fred Drake 00a3a65cc0 Refer to the right RFC in the intro. 1999-02-22 17:12:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 360eb9f278 We don't support leap seconds, so the seconds field of a time 9-tuple 
should be in the range [0-59].  Noted by Tadayoshi Funaba.

Guido van Rossum 5bd69db9f0 In atoi(), don't use isxdigit() to test whether the last character 
converted was a "digit" -- use isalnum().  This test is there only to
guard against "+" or "-" being interpreted as a valid int literal.
Reported by Takahiro Nakayama.

Fred Drake 0fb7a37667 Reflect the released version. 1999-02-22 15:58:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum fb801e7d33 As Finn Bock points out, _P_WAIT etc. don't have a leading underscore 
so they don't need to be treated specially here.

Fred Drake 0df2188d08 Typo: "apparentlt" --> "apparently" 1999-02-22 15:38:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 974e32d910 Steve Clift pointed out that 'file' allows a netloc. 1999-02-22 15:38:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 61eeb044d7 The docstring for ttyname(..) claims a second "mode" argument. The 
actual code does not allow such an argument.  (Finn Bock.)

Guido van Rossum 11a8d0b684 Dang. Even though this is obsolete code, somebody found a bug, and I 
fix it.  Oh well.
 1999-02-22 15:19:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 9226d8e8a8 Removed "This will be discussed later." where it's not. Reported by

 1999-02-19 23:04:59 +00:00
Fred Drake df5d50d889 Specify the sizes of H? relative to the normal font size as 
percentages; using "large", "x-large" makes them too big for
some troublemakers.  ;-)

(Not specifying them at all causes some browsers to make them the same
size as normal text.  ;-(  )
