Fred Drake 4c6d21a790 Fix some minor nits about the use of \optional in parameter lists. 2000-09-22 15:46:35 +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
Fred Drake d68442b164 Lots of minor fixes, many suggested by Detlef Lannert

This closes SourceForge bug #114792.
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
Fred Drake 2964268db5 Allow the LaTeX markup descriptions to use the \moreargs and \unspecified
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 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>:

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

Tim Peters 1de8098ca6 Repaired some glitches in the MD5 and SHA docs; copied the descriptions of
the MD5 methods into the SHA docs (substituting "sha" for "md5", of course,
and changing the stuff that depended on digest size accordingly).
Fred, don't trust me!
2000-09-18 15:34:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 5316ef4bbb Added documentation for new functions.

Fred, please check my latex!
2000-09-16 16:30:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 634fc574e1 Use a really ugly hack that depends on output processing by LaTeX2HTML.
This replaces the tilde character with the string ";SPMtilde;", which
LaTeX2HTML converts to a tilde on output.

This closes SourceForge bug #110619.
2000-09-15 04:12:56 +00:00
Fred Drake f3d41272c6 Before running LaTeX2HTML, remove all the HTML files from the output
directory.  This avoids acretion of HTML from previous runs which may
have a new name; this would have avoided a lot of the packaging problems
related to changing labels from the old distutils documentation.
2000-09-14 22:25:47 +00:00
Fred Drake aaa238585f When there is a Module Index, make sure the icon actually links to it. 2000-09-14 22:20:41 +00:00

is gone.

Make a module reference into a hyperlink.
2000-09-14 20:32:17 +00:00
Fred Drake bd2d4f1252 Use the \setshortversion macro to specify the abbreviated version number.
This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.

Fix the release number -- this is supposed to be the *Python* release,
not the documentation release!  The later is given by the combination of
the Python release number and the date.  Add a comment so I can keep it
straight.
2000-09-14 20:28:26 +00:00
Fred Drake d5d0435617 Use \shortversion in a number of places.

do_cmd_methodline(),
do_cmd_methodlineni():  Modified to use helper convert_args().

The convert_args() helper and related changes fix the generation of HTML
for the \optional markup, so that bogus </var>...<var> is not generated.
This closes SourceForge bug #113800.
2000-09-14 20:17:23 +00:00
Fred Drake af2b71466a \shortversion,
\setshortversion:  New markup to help deal with Python having a "real"
                   version number and an abbreviated version number
                   used to create pathnames to the library installation.

Fred Drake f913e542be Vladimir Marangozov <Vladimir.Marangozov@inrialpes.fr>:
Here are some changes to the C API docs. The memory examples & API have
been updated because one malloc family is gone (Py_Malloc).
You'll see other small additions to the "building new types" section
for completeness and some cleanup at the end of the memory section.
2000-09-12 20:17:17 +00:00

Fred Drake 643d76d735 Add support for new \pep, \seepep, excclassdesc markup.
Update processing of module synopsis tables (found at the beginning of
most chapters of the library reference) to reflect changes in the
processing pattern of recent versions LaTeX2HMTL.  Requires most
recent change to SynopsisTable.pm.

This does not fix the module index problem.
2000-09-09 06:07:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e607964d1 excclassdesc: New environment. For use in documenting class-based

2000-09-09 03:26:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 1c4efad770 Move the "See also" section to a location more consistent with other

Fred Drake d0726c3cd9 \file is not allowed in section titles -- converting to PDF fails due to
weird macro-expansion issues.  A better solution may be available in the
future, but this will do for now.

Add an index entry.  More should probably be added as well.
2000-09-07 18:55:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 88c023b863 Remove comment about -X and string exceptions. Error noted by

Other scattered improvements.
2000-09-07 02:40:37 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 4d46d38292 Add new section "What About Python 1.6?"

"manual" class documents.
2000-09-05 21:45:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 8bdf0bf705 Fix PDF generation.
The \\ introduced in the \author in boilerplate.tex broke the PDF
generation because line breaks are not allowed in the "Document Info"
metadata stored in the PDF file.  This changes the line break to
a ", " (comma-space) in that context.
2000-09-05 15:19:56 +00:00

2000-08-31 19:23:01 +00:00
Fred Drake aef0e890b5 Document the limitation that urllib does not work with proxies which
require authenication.  This is an implementation limitation rather than
required behavior, and may be fixed in the future.

Sjoerd Mullender 1c8feae411 New method getnamespace.
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.
2000-08-31 10:27:00 +00:00
Fred Drake f730fc3e4e Be a little more careful to avoid including style information in the
generated markup.

Don't be careless with the navigation icons!  We should use the blank
icon where there is not anyplace to go for a particular position in the
navigation bar.
2000-08-31 07:19:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 3eb7c126cd Always room to remove more formatting from the HTML! 2000-08-31 07:15:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 501b926da9 Move common parameters to mkhowto to a variable, add up-link from the
generated documents to the document index.

Fred Drake dfa539d770 Add --up-link and --up-title parameters to allow linking the top level
of the generated document to an external index.  These correspond to the
-up_url and -up_title parameters of LaTeX2HTML.
2000-08-31 06:58:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 3be2074758 Push some table header formatting to the style sheet; this also helps

Revamp the "title page" construction to allow more flexibility.
2000-08-31 06:22:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 0154fea5f4 Remove obsolete scripts. 2000-08-31 06:15:30 +00:00

initialization with additional Perl files.  This can be given more
than once.
2000-08-31 06:14:38 +00:00
Fred Drake b9b4c5b560 Centralize the processing logic for LaTeX documents into the mkhowto script;
do not use mkdvi.sh or mkhtl.sh any more.

This slows down building all versions of the documentation, but if you are
only building one format, it does not matter.
2000-08-31 06:12:35 +00:00
Fred Drake fcab76350a Relocate the popen2 documentation since it is now substantially more

scripts as much as possible.
2000-08-30 15:02:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 4973b35991 Remove the reference to stdwin. The comment was still true, but no
longer meaningful to a new user, since stdwin is long gone.
2000-08-30 14:33:02 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 7b828a6a56 doc changes to parallel changes to calendar.py module 2000-08-30 14:02:25 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 3cdb5761c5 Fix markup error 2000-08-30 12:55:42 +00:00
Fred Drake d576e9df5f Markup revisions. Nothing was actually required to be able to format it,
but many conventions were broken.
2000-08-30 04:19:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 47eceeaaa4 Added a couple of links to online documentation. Reasonable since this
file is not used in the online documentation.

Added section on augmented assignment
Mentioned 'print >>file'
Broke up the "Core Changes" section into subsections
