shorter names (dropped the "module" from the name): sunaudiodev,
imgformat, audioop, imageop, imgfile
* Modules/stropmodule.c (strop_rindex): make rindex('abc', '') do
the right thing (i.e. return 3 instead of 0)
* Modules/socketmodule.c: disabled allowbroadcast() socket method
posixmodule.c: use pclose, not fclose!
selectmodule.c: trap negative fileno's, change some error messages.
stropmodule.c: change semantics of rindex to match string.py.
* tkintermodule.c (FileHandler): Make arg a tuple; bug found
by <tnb2d@cs.virginia.edu>. Call the Python file handler
function with (file, mask) argument. Fix a few of my refcnt bugs.
Does not need any SGI-specific libraries.
cgen.py, cstubs, Makefile: Generate glmodule.c differently so that it
can be compiled using an ANSI compiler.
* dosmodule.c: MSDOS specific stuff from posixmodule.c.
* posixmodule.c: removed all MSDOS specific stuff.
* tokenizer.h, parsetok.h: in prototypes, don't mix named and unnamed
parameters (MSC doesn't like this).
* traceback.c (tb_print): use sys.tracebacklimit as a maximum number of
traceback entries to print (default 1000).
* ceval.c (printtraceback): Don't print stack trace header -- this is now
done by tb_print().
-- function of module audioop: minmax (FRAGMENT, WIDTH)
Minmax returns a tuple consisting of the minimum and maximum
values of all samples in the sound fragment.
* posixmodule.c: don't prototype getcwd() -- it's not portable...
* mappingobject.c: double-check validity of last_name_char in
dict{lookup,insert,remove}.
* arraymodule.c: need memmove only for non-STDC Suns.
* Makefile: comment out HTML_LIBS and XT_USE by default
* pythonmain.c: don't prototype getopt() -- it's not standardized
* socketmodule.c: cast flags arg to {get,set}sockopt() and addrbuf arg to
recvfrom() to (ANY*).
* pythonrun.c (initsigs): fix prototype, make it static
* intobject.c (LONG_BIT): only #define it if not already defined
* classobject.[ch]: remove all references to unused instance_convert()
* mappingobject.c (getmappingsize): Don't return NULL in int function.
each dir in sys.path, try each possible extension. (Note: C extensions
are loaded before Python modules in the same directory, to allow having
a C version used when dynamic loading is supported and a Python version
as a back-up.)
* import.c (reload_module): test for error from getmodulename()
* moduleobject.c: implement module name as dict entry '__name__' instead
of special-casing it in module_getattr(); this way a module (or
function!) can access its own module name, and programs that know what
they are doing can rename modules.
* stdwinmodule.c (initstdwin): strip ".py" suffix of argv[0].
* {tuple,list,mapping,array}object.c: call printobject with 0 for flags
* compile.c (parsestr): use quote instead of '\'' at one crucial point
* arraymodule.c (array_getattr): Added __members__ attribute
* object.[ch], bltinmodule.c, fileobject.c: changed str() to call
strobject() which calls an object's __str__ method if it has one.
strobject() is also called by writeobject() when PRINT_RAW is passed.
* ceval.c: rationalize code for PRINT_ITEM (no change in function!)
* funcobject.c, codeobject.c: added compare and hash functionality.
Functions with identical code objects and the same global dictionary are
equal. Code objects are equal when their code, constants list and names
list are identical (i.e. the filename and code name don't count).
(hash doesn't work yet since the constants are in a list and lists can't
be hashed -- suppose this should really be done with a tuple now we have
resizetuple!)
careful about these.
* arraymodule.c: added 8 byte swap; added 'i' format character; added
reverse() method; rename read/write to fromfile/tofile.
* config.c: Set version to 0.9.9++.
* rotormodule.c (r_rand): declare k1..k5 as unsigned longs so the shifts
will have a well-defined effect independent of word size.
* bltinmodule.c: renamed bagof() to filter().
