1998-11-30 22:31:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 3d5e2c032d Move nasty cruft from make.rules' $(CUTCRUFT) here, mostly to clean up

1998-11-30 20:37:24 +00:00
Fred Drake ca6d6355d7 l2hoption: Do the "right thing" to quote the right-hand-side of Perl
assignments.  This allows '"', '$', and '@' to be included in
	the values passed to parameters like --address.

1998-11-30 20:27:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 1ea5848b7b Oops, remove LaTeX2HTML version number. Could become wrong and isn't
needed, since it's always added to the comments in the page header
anyway.
1998-11-30 19:29:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 15796f791a do_cmd_textohtmlinfopage(): Rip out most of the boilerplate and move
it to the about.dat file.  Only what really needs to be
	generated is, and the remainder is easier to maintain than
	Perl code.
1998-11-30 19:25:47 +00:00
Fred Drake d83c8bd95f New file. Contains boilerplate text for the "About this document..."
section of LaTeX2HTML-generated documents.

Fred Drake 1cbd196f96 Minor nit that fixes a bunch of indexing: the way the classdesc
environment saves the name of the last class described, method and
member descriptions were not picking it up correctly.  Thus, many
index entries were described as "( method)" instead of "(FooClass
method)".  Multiple entries were collapsed in the index when
methods/members from multiple classes share the same name.
1998-11-25 17:13:28 +00:00
Fred Drake e839199014 Fix indexing of func_code attribute; this is on a function, not a code

1998-11-25 17:09:19 +00:00

1998-11-24 17:40:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 6942e57f87 Script to convert things like <C/> and <Cpp/> to &C; and &Cpp;. This is

1998-11-24 17:38:49 +00:00
Fred Drake e743fd01ac Rationalize a word-space markup to not break in the LaTeX->*ML
conversion tools currently being constructed.

Add a chapter from Jim Fulton on using Misc/Makefile.pre.in.  Still
preliminary.  The "Dynamic Loading" chapter needs to be updated (and
possibly removed, since it's no longer an issue for most (any?)
users.
1998-11-24 17:07:29 +00:00

1998-11-23 16:30:18 +00:00
Fred Drake c16149b17b Some cleanup.
Don't duplicate the information on what's empty; rely on the input
data for that.  (This means that the DOM may need more work.)
1998-11-23 15:14:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 96b07a9453 Fix some minor problems.

Andrew M. Kuchling 42db27fedc Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
    exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
    when the main line of the program resumes execution.  Is this guaranteed
    in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?

Also fixed a typo.

Fred Drake eb7fe4f5a1 Massive cleanup: Use Makefiles in subdirs properly, move most of the
detailed build rules to the subdirs.  Allow pretty much every useful target
to be built directly from the top dir (no change in output location).
