Fred Drake 007bac3b0b Added smtplib.py (thanks, Guido!). 1998-04-09 18:54:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 2cb824cbf9 Don't use \samp when \code is better.
Consistently use ' instead of ":  this conforms to my unofficial stance that
constants should be presented using the repr() whenever it makes sense.  This
isn't because I think repr() is the greatest thing since spam, just that it's
an easy to adopt consistency standard.  (It also holds no new surprises!)
1998-04-09 18:10:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 45c634ecae Work around a small (& annoying) limitation of the latex2html support for
\seemodule.  This is far easier than figuring out the real problem, but it
works.

Fred Drake 8a254b5967 Removed misleading comment about GNU software. This module and the zlib
library have no relationship with GNU software other than implementing some of
the same algorithms and file format.  (The zlib module is more general.)
1998-04-09 15:41:44 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 253328104f Many markup changes (to \regexp, mostly)

  qualifier.

Fred Drake 20ca9171c1 Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).

Add section for previously documented obsolete modules.  Includes ni, rand,
and soundex.
1998-04-09 14:32:28 +00:00

This is the last separation; each module now gets its own section.  This will
be useful in performing conversions.
