Fred Drake 44c413b05e Make the large letter at the top of each section use the sans-serif font,
like any other header.

Fred Drake 3bf7865a20 Added {definitions} environment, which has \term to define indivual terms.
Similar to {description}.
1998-05-20 17:42:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 6df93ef9dd Added definitions for \developer, \developers, \developersaddress.
Ask Guido if you really want to know why.  ;-)
1998-05-14 20:56:31 +00:00
Fred Drake ba1700c7bb Set the right page size in the PDF output. 1998-05-11 20:42:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 0cabff904f \itembreak,
\itemjoin,
\kwindex:  Revived definitions to support the Python Reference Manual.
1998-05-06 19:36:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 2a3ab4fac1 Do better hiding of internal names. 1998-04-28 18:31:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 24340ea583 Fixed \code so word wrapping is allowed.
Removed some old stuff.

Do better hiding of internal names.

Fred Drake 724473fbe5 Load the options from the pypaper.sty file before setting up the "base class"
for the manual documents.

Fred Drake b4929a794e Paper size / font size configuration file.
This is separated so I can build A4 and US Letter sizes without having to
edit files.

Anyone who downloads the source package can also simply edit this file,
which is a lot shorter than the manual.cls file, and easier to find the
appropriate line.

Fred Drake 255284b42a Fix problem for the Library Reference where high-numbered sections of
high-numbered chapters took too much space for the section number in the
table of contents.  This makes the section number and title not overlap.
1998-04-20 16:55:14 +00:00
Fred Drake d579ed8239 Shift (re-)definition of \theindex to the document classes so that it doesn't
break HOWTO documents.
1998-04-17 02:45:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 300775d222 Hide \varvars from "public" interface. 1998-04-17 02:17:00 +00:00
Fred Drake a2c2a836d7 Fix the broken PDF links, really this time!
"." cannot be part of the target names either.

Appending a junk char to the end doesn't quite do it, or doesn't seem to at
any rate.  Instead, pad the page numbers to always be 3 charaters wide, with
leading zeros.
1998-04-15 17:50:01 +00:00
Fred Drake a88d681255 Change the form of the name given to each page of the PDF from "page.%d" to
"page.%dx"; this works around an acroread bug that causes targets not to be
recognized if their name is a prefix of another target in the file.
1998-04-15 14:53:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 4d2996d473 Fix version number. 1998-04-13 20:29:45 +00:00
Fred Drake ee60191d1d Lighten up tables. 1998-04-11 20:53:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 02a8e6b600 Update release number and date. 1998-04-09 14:50:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 41565f66b6 Data attributes of objects should not be indexed with trailing parentheses! 1998-04-07 19:32:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a2eb138e7 Style specification for building *.ind from *.idx. This is needed to avoid
wrapping of long lines, which tools/indfix.py doesn't understand, and needs
to to handle collapsing of entries which can share a common emtry and just
be short entries themselves.  We get the added benefit of nicer formatting.
1998-04-04 04:18:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 47cfd03dff Increase space between the end of a regexp and the little right floor symbol
used as a closing quote.  At AMK's request.
1998-04-03 21:22:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 537149707b Removed an obsolete hack that's been commented out for a long time.
Added comments to various sections.
1998-04-02 22:33:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 2351c80747 \bifuncindex: Fix so entries combine correctly with those of the built-in
functions section.
1998-04-02 18:48:32 +00:00
Fred Drake f14e2f8a04 Fix one remaining internal use of \code{} that could use the simpler form. 1998-04-02 16:09:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 454a4fb018 Added some comments. 1998-04-01 22:20:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 48a16bf6b5 \tableofcontents: Add support for some warning reduction in python.sty. 1998-03-27 05:24:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 6cb71491de Add comments about several of the environments.
Cleaned up some problems that caused minor warnings.

Added environments for object methods and members, with non-indexing variants.
This includes reduced use of the indexsubitem setting, allowing more robust
index generation.

Removed some unused definitions.
1998-03-27 05:22:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 55730316c9 Don't use the fncychap package for HOWTO documents; appendices break. Still
use them for manuals.
1998-03-25 15:41:23 +00:00
Fred Drake c0b2e453ae Change uses of \pdfinfo and \pdfcatalog to use the new syntax from the
latest pdftex.  (Which we have here at CNRI.)  This makes the PDF targets
work again.
1998-03-25 14:53:43 +00:00
Fred Drake a2be9881f0 Reverting some of the index stuff to work with LaTeX2HTML better. 1998-03-17 06:20:04 +00:00
Fred Drake ae25be2e4d {classdesc} environment: Index as "Foo (class in foolib)" instead of
"Foo (in module foolib)".  Is now independent of indexsubitem.
1998-03-16 05:26:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 94fac130bb \regexp{}: Rewritten to look like Freidl's book. Too rip-off?
\envvar{}:  Bow to font-lock-mode a few times...!
1998-03-12 19:37:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee9f727c9 \withsubitem{}: New macro. Change indexsubitem temporarily for another
macro.  Intended usage:

		\withsubitem{(in module foo)}{\ttindex{myfunc()}}

	This allows indexing functions from other modules/class/whatnot
	without being dependent on the exact expansions of several macros
	internal to python.sty.  It's also easier to read in the source!

Some new "logical" macros that seem to be useful:

\regexp{}:  For regular expressions.  To make it easier to keep the appearance
	consistent.

\mimetype{}:  Don't use \code{}!

\envvar{}:  Environment variable.  This does some indexing as well.

\character{}:  Just a character we want to talk about in the text, but not
	a Python constant.
1998-03-12 06:41:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 97c73c83ed Remove \newif relating to index support; no longer needed. Index control
is now shared and located solely in python.sty.
1998-03-09 16:40:31 +00:00
Fred Drake b390daf704 Adjust the index support a bit to make it easier to deal with module index.
Don't generate the mod???.idx file if it wasn't requested with the new command
\makemodindex.

Change the format of mod???.idx to match that of "normal" .idx files.  This
lets us use makeindex for it and not need a special script.
1998-03-09 16:35:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 1c8d0e0579 Never, NEVER try to recover a screwed up file by carving a chunk out of an
RCS ,v archive!  And certainly don't check it back in without testing it.

				;-(

"@" becomes "@@" everywhere.

This one *is* tested!
1998-03-07 05:29:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 6663b22198 Oops; file copy error somewhere along the way.... 1998-03-06 22:33:06 +00:00
Fred Drake ebcb658248 Revise some of the PDF support to get at least preliminary outline support.
Rewrite \seemodule (again) to allow an optional argument to support modules
which include an underscore in the names.  See example in comments.

Fred Drake dbe132c7ac LaTeX class for Python HOWTO documents. 1998-03-06 21:21:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 55a7cf3ee7 Update documentation release date. 1998-03-05 17:15:26 +00:00
Fred Drake aa54e2db84 Move the change to ending the abstract from python.sty to manual.cls; it
is not appropriate for the howto document class.
1998-03-05 16:41:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 3455edcbc8 Create the module index only if a conditional is true. 1998-03-04 21:56:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 54b03b85f7 Define a new conditional, use this to control creation of module index
data file.
1998-03-04 21:52:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 28f1391051 Improve separation of document class and python semantic constructs. This
will allow us to have a class of smaller documents as well.
1998-03-04 21:47:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 6659c30b67 Convert LaTeX support to create a new class of documents. HTML generation
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).

This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.
1998-03-03 22:02:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 5c4e648731 Updated date for interim documentation release. 1998-02-17 15:41:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a72a7e344 Use new \authoraddress{}; author's name and address are now separate.
Use new \release{}; this is now separate from \date{}.

Use \email{} instead of \code{} for email addresses.
1998-02-12 03:16:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 0e823d2abd New file. Written by Ulf A. Lindgren <lindgren@ae.chalmers.se>; we have

Fred Drake b065452ebc Bump up the version number. The date still needs to be set (Guido will
have to do that one!), but at least the version will match the release
version.  (1.5a2 got skipped for this.)
