Expand the documentation of the low-level tracing/profiling interface.

This reflects what is currently in CVS, which may change before 2.2 is final.

Fredrik tells me the truefalse parameter for boolean() is not part of the
...
public interface, so we can simplify the documentation.

Removed stray backslash (a typo -- my fault).

The description of dictionary comparison was out of date. Rather than
...
try to explain the complex general scheme we actually use now, I decided
to spell out only what equality means (which is easy to explain and
intuitive), leaving the other outcomes unspecified beyond consistency.

Refer to the objects which define __len__(), __*item__(), and __iter__()
...
as container objects rather than as mapping objects (in the index entries).
Change the section heading and intro sentence to be a little more general,
since that's how things have actually evolved.

The execfile() docs imply it acts on locals same as exec. But in truth
...
it acts more like assigning to keys in locals(), i.e. modifications to
function locals aren't reflected in the locals when execfile() returns.
2001-09-30 06:32:59 +00:00

Correct docs for long(float).

SF [ #466125 ] PyLong_AsLongLong works for any integer.
...
Generalize PyLong_AsLongLong to accept int arguments too. The real point
is so that PyArg_ParseTuple's 'L' code does too. That code was
undocumented (AFAICT), so documented it.
2001-09-30 05:09:37 +00:00

Handle PEP references the same way RFC references.
2001-09-29 19:07:22 +00:00

Fix two typos in the text about compile(), and add two caveats from

recent user feedback: you must end the input with \n and you must use
\n, not \r\n to represent line endings.

Fix up whitespace in <args> elements; reduce sequences of consecutive

Small changes elsewhere, mostly to clean up the code a little.

The list.sort() docs require a function that returns -1, 0 or +1. That's
...
never been true, and in particular implies cmp() can't be used(!). Get
closer to the truth.

Convert to string methods.
...
For the real document element, make sure the prolog is migrated into
the document element so it isn't left stranded.
Make fixup_trailing_whitespace() whitespace do what was really intended.
Add the *desc environments used in the C API manual to the list of
things that can exist at the paragraph level so they don't get wrapped
in <para>...</para>.
2001-09-28 17:14:35 +00:00

Use consistent version annotations instead of something ad hoc.

Do not distinguish \refmodule from \module in the generated output;

whether or not a link will be generated will depend on the link database.
Add a couple of explanatory comments for one of the stranger constructs
(giving input an empty name).

Markup adjustment: \[...\] is math markup and does not translate well when
...
used with text as was done here. Fixed so that the typeset version wraps
the warning text and the HTML version does not create images of the warning
text.
2001-09-27 04:16:27 +00:00

Move the styling for the HTML version of \mailheader into the CSS file.
...
In both the HTML and typeset versions of the documentation, add a colon
after the name of a mail header so that it is more easily distinguished
from other text.
2001-09-26 18:46:36 +00:00
203d91a461
Note that the colon following a mail header name should not be included

when using the \mailheader markup.
Change a couple of inline examples to show the markup rather than the
result.

Move the \mailheader description to the right place.
...
Clarify the \mimetype description; it can be used to refer to a part of a
MIME type name, so \mimetype{text} or \mimetype{plain} can be used, not
just \mimetype{text/plain}.
2001-09-26 17:01:58 +00:00
