Raymond Hettinger 42b1ba31af * list.sort() now supports three keyword arguments: cmp, key, and reverse. 
key provides C support for the decorate-sort-undecorate pattern.
  reverse provide a stable sort of the list with the comparisions reversed.

* Amended the docs to guarantee sort stability.

Fred Drake 664a27133c - don't re-write a SourceForge authenticated CVS root into the 
anonymous flavor unless the user asks for it on the command line
- decompose SourceForge authenticated CVS roots correctly
 2003-10-03 15:21:38 +00:00
Skip Montanaro dffeed3ffa Make the fieldnames argument optional in the DictReader. If self.fieldnames 
is None, the next row read is used as the fieldnames.  In the common case,
this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time.
The first row of the file will be used.  In the uncommon case, this means
the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time
and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can
contain several "sections", each with different fieldnames.

Fred Drake 94b3463f7e We're long past worrying about Python versions older than 1.5.2;

 2003-10-01 04:03:54 +00:00

Fred Drake 69db2b967a - change computation of VERSION to use tools/getversioninfo; this is 
more reliable than using the $Revision$ expansion
- $RELEASE is no longer needed; we can just use $VERSION now

Fred Drake f7a0d68708 Update the list of directories passed to py2texi.el. The ordering was

 2003-09-28 03:11:09 +00:00
Fred Drake d4956aac96 Make the "path math" more robust, and support both relative and 
absolute paths as input.
 2003-09-28 03:10:09 +00:00
Fred Drake c8083cf1cc Load the version information from ../Include/patchlevel.h, so there are 
fewer changes to make to version numbers after a release.
 2003-09-27 22:07:05 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 43b5e40795 * Fix markup. 
* Fix entry order:
  -  >>> before ...
  - __slots__ in the S section (like __future__ is in the F section)

Need to test the repaired(?) link to Guido's webpage.

Still needs to have the module reference links made relative to
the module directory instead of the tut directory.  That will
require Fred's magic touch.
 2003-09-27 20:19:02 +00:00

Fred Drake d4a1419f53 Lots of markup corrections. Some are minor, but others are not: the 
contents of an \item should not be enclosed in a group!
 2003-09-27 18:59:43 +00:00
Fred Drake cc2e48dd79 Make sure LaTeX2HTML's $TEXINPUTS variable is initialized to include 
directories identified in the TEXINPUTS environment variable.
I think this is the last part of the fix for the version number
problems seen in the documentation for the 2.3.1 release.

Fred Drake 410825ac8b Move content input files shared among the documents into a new directory 
(commontex/), leaving only style support files in texinputs/.  This makes
texinputs/ part of the formatting tools while commontex/ is strictly part
of the actual documentation.
 2003-09-27 07:11:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 2ee37ff191 - use string methods 
- make TEXINPUTS work the way it's supposed to in TeX-ish tools
 2003-09-27 07:05:12 +00:00
Fred Drake e395e2278c Fix the most recent change to the invocation of the mkhowto script so 
that it works for all targets.

The issue here is that there are two different levels in the directory
tree at which we execute mkhowto, so we can't define it just once
using a relative path (at least not with the current implementation
and Makefile structure).  We use the GNUish $(shell) function here to
work around that restriction by identifying mkhowto using an absolute
path.

  instance variables in different ways
