Guido van Rossum b5903ac9fb Another new utility: getpass() prompts for a password, with echo off.
Also contains getuser(), which returns the username (not prompting though).
These work on Unix and Windows!

Guido van Rossum f2da4ed48b Add $(LIBS) to the pgen link line. 1998-04-09 19:10:38 +00:00
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!)

Fred Drake 5cca42e0b7 do_cmd_lineii(),
do_cmd_lineiii():  Fix markup style conversion to HTML tags for first column.
	(The endtag wasn't formed properly.)

Guido van Rossum 99c185e787 Add not_ and __not__. 1998-04-09 17:54:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c3d3f9692d Add PyObject_Not(). 1998-04-09 17:53:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 6b529ae0c0 Remove @webchecker.pickle in the "clean" target. 1998-04-09 15:46:36 +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.)

Fred Drake 45084ed52a Added note about current status of info generation. 1998-04-09 15:19:41 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 253328104f Many markup changes (to \regexp, mostly)
Clarified text on 8-bit cleanness, complemented sets like [^5], and {m,n}
  qualifier.

Fred Drake 02a8e6b600 Update release number and date. 1998-04-09 14:50:47 +00:00
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
Guido van Rossum 29e5f5d81f When getcwd() doesn't exist or raises an exception, don't fail but
fall back to using os.curdir instead; if it is fine, don't use
os.curdir at all.
1998-04-09 14:27:57 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c09e6b1c0a Clarify that put *blocks* when the queue is full. Add some blank
lines to doc strings.
1998-04-09 14:25:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 363ab1a613 Comment out the soundex section. 1998-04-09 14:23:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eeec0af307 Piers' new version (but I unfolded a few doc strings). 1998-04-09 14:20:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 2de75ec245 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).

Fred Drake 9da38814a3 Use the correct URL to AMK's regex-to-re HOWTO! 1998-04-09 14:06:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 54c3947fbc Updated URL to AMK's regex-to-re HOWTO. 1998-04-09 14:03:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 5406e7071f Added reference to AMK's HOWTO on the topic. 1998-04-09 14:02:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 223395c0a0 Added imaplib. 1998-04-09 13:55:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c2c07fa10c Piers Lauder's IMAP module. 1998-04-09 13:51:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 03774bb5ea Version with docstrings and some other changes, by Piers Lauder.
(Adapted by Just, I believe.)
1998-04-09 13:50:55 +00:00
Fred Drake b8efda01e6 Update URL to the related HOWTO document. 1998-04-09 13:49:18 +00:00
Fred Drake bd400881dd Add section for ni back in, but comment it out. 1998-04-09 11:04:19 +00:00

Fred Drake 3217be9395 Relocating file to Lib/lib-old. 1998-04-09 04:05:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 153165ca3d Restore ni as an obsolete module. 1998-04-09 04:04:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 058068d992 Nearly a complete re-write.
Basically, it now works and produces a nice-looking HTML index.

Shows some promise for extensibility, but still young.  Needs useful comments.
1998-04-08 23:12:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 166abbabf9 Remove option to strip out <tt>...</tt> from index entry text; this is now
left to the buildindex.py script.

Change the field separator used in the index.dat file so utilities like grep
are useful on these files; they can't typically handle NUL bytes.

Protect index entries for environment variables from being handled as
case-insensitive by buildindex.py.

Guido van Rossum ae2be7144d Correct definition of CTIME. 1998-04-08 22:44:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 685fe839a9 This really needs python 1.5 now... 1998-04-08 21:37:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f3c25fc03 Set flag to remove <tt>...</tt> markup from the index entries; it just ends up
looking really bad in popular browsers, mostly due to vertical size differences
between the roman and monospaced fonts.
1998-04-08 13:46:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 2764dd33cf Separate sections on anydbm and dumbdbm.
This is the last separation; each module now gets its own section.  This will
be useful in performing conversions.
1998-04-07 22:08:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e729ec31a Caught a few more spurious \setindexsubitem macros.... 1998-04-07 22:06:41 +00:00

Fred Drake df0e3fcb63 Markup nit. 1998-04-07 20:04:27 +00:00
Fred Drake c708605f4f Added a reference to the discussion in Knuth's "Sorting and Searching", and
noted that the original algorithm produces 4-character results rather than
the 6-character results provided by this module.

Made the module lists look like the other module lists in the documentation.
