directories as well.
 1998-07-24 20:48:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b193c95165 Document Ellipsis (not much of a documentation snippet, but at least

Fred Drake 64e3b43583 Move files around to get the names to match the module names except for 
case.  Two modules (SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer) still don't match; those
names are just too long!
 1998-07-24 13:56:11 +00:00
Fred Drake cf0fb8bfee Document the 'p' format character. 
Clean up some of the markup.
 1998-07-23 21:18:25 +00:00

equivalent to exceptions.OSError.

Fred Drake 27467e4b7e Logical markup. 1998-07-23 19:47:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 3bd9ab0ef3 Use the new module synopsis syntax, even though we don't need a synopsis table 
for this chapter.  This protects against backend changes for \declaremodule.
 1998-07-23 19:33:08 +00:00
Fred Drake b91e934cf1 Adjusted to use the new module synopsis support macros. 1998-07-23 17:59:49 +00:00

 1998-07-22 21:34:21 +00:00

Guido van Rossum d623d20e7d Complete the addition of libthreading.tex. (Isn't it annoying that 
you need to edit four files in order to add one section to the manual?)
 1998-07-20 17:34:50 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 16440e63be Added libthreading.tex ; this is mostly the contents of threading_api.py,

Fred Drake 5b68362a3a Use the real name of the module: "smtplib", not "smtp". 
Use logical (& consistent) markup.

Added a see-also section at the end.
 1998-06-30 16:53:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8ec619f60e Note that readline returns '' on EOF, not "EOF" (whatever that may be). 1998-06-30 16:35:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 472b9a3f06 Clearly I was to quick with the previous commit... 
Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too.

Fixed note for pop() and mentioned that it is experimental.

Also added pop to index.
 1998-06-30 16:02:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 97ea116472 Documented the pop() method for lists.

 1998-06-30 15:56:23 +00:00

cmd, multifile and smtplib.
 1998-06-28 17:55:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73d8bff44d Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). Also 
document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit()
vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is
obsolete.
 1998-06-27 18:25:44 +00:00
Fred Drake e5836d9811 Mark the 'whence' parameter of the file object's seek() method as optional;

 1998-06-22 15:02:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a7874d1505 Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable 
goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it
doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type()
builtin...
 1998-06-22 14:07:36 +00:00

the empty prompt.

keyword argument can be used to direct it somewhere else.  Also
documented all the other functions in this module, and even added a
little example.

# Haven't tested the latex for correctness -- all latex installations
# appear broken.
 1998-06-17 22:37:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 777dcc6b21 Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent to 
eval(raw_input(s)).  The statement about breaking a long expression
over multiple lines is no longer true.
 1998-06-17 15:16:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 872948350f Some extra notes, and describe a new class (AddressList), all by ESR. 1998-06-16 22:27:40 +00:00

take or yield a time represented as a 9-tuple.
 1998-06-09 21:25:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5d23758be7 Added docs for strptime(). 1998-06-09 16:30:56 +00:00

 1998-05-22 18:48:37 +00:00

Bow to font lock.
 1998-05-14 15:16:12 +00:00
Fred Drake a4c640e142 Reverted the last change; the extra cruft is harmless for formatted versions, 
and allows the info to work through this section.
 1998-05-11 19:51:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 02379fab61 Use \ldots, not \dots. The info process doesn't know about \dots. 1998-05-08 15:39:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7b0c9d8a07 exec is a statement, not a function! 1998-05-08 13:27:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 4775d0a353 Relocating file to mac. 1998-05-07 12:58:57 +00:00

is now a tuple of various and sundry exceptions.
 1998-04-28 15:29:26 +00:00
Fred Drake f8d50bfdb0 Hook in the calendar and popen2 sections. 1998-04-28 14:29:27 +00:00
