time finding the bindings.

Guido van Rossum 9068da4b6d Milton L. Hankin reports that on Windows it is possible to have two
different values in the environ dict with the same key (although he
couldn't explain exactly how this came to be).  Since getenv() uses
the first one, Python should do too. (Some doubts about case
sensitivity, but for now this at least seems the right thing to do
regardless of platform.)

Guido van Rossum 3427c1f71b Sjoerd Mullender:
In splithost, accept empty host part in URLs.  This is required for
file URLs that can have an empty host part.  For such URLs, we should
not return the initial 2 slashes as part of the file name.

Fred Drake 85b5683307 Remove extraneous "contains" -- pointed out by Daniel Barclay
<danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Added credit to Martin von Loewis for creating the module and
documentation.
1999-07-01 16:31:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 859dc53a52 Per Frank Stajano's suggestion, state explicitly that the functions
described in the sub-sections are directly available at the module
level.  He found this confusing.
1999-07-01 13:54:40 +00:00
Fred Drake b216060627 Make the reference to the os module in the module synopsis (for the
table at the front of the chapter) a hyperlink.

Just van Rossum 3e2d73fef8 Don't set type of application, it's taken care of elsewhere -- jvr 1999-06-30 19:31:14 +00:00
Fred Drake f1ad207f2a Made several grammatical corrections based on comments from Daniel
Barcla <danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Also added example of what happens when a parameter is set both
positionally and by a keyword (one of Daniels suggestions related to
that paragraph).

Fred Drake 3d0971e33e For "Matching vs. Searching", remove comment that the section is
incomplete; I don't remember what else I thought I was going to put
in, but it looks o.k. to me know.
1999-06-29 21:21:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 9b59a303a8 Added some reminders. 1999-06-29 18:54:03 +00:00
Fred Drake d85b5a418a Move the setting for secnumdepth to the document classes; make the numbering
for the manual class go one deeper than it previously did (\subsection
entries will now be numbered); no change for howto documents.

This makes it easier to refer precisely to smaller sections using \ref.
1999-06-29 18:15:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 6bf37debb9 Added some minor prose before the descriptions of the data attributes

Fred Drake f5213c2a3d Usage nit: a bunch of "nor"s should have been a single "or".
Make reference to the copy_reg module a hyperlink.

Fred Drake b8690fbc95 Define NotANumber as a subclass of ValueError when using class-based
exceptions.

value.

Fred Drake 9e0b6229f6 Comment out XXX comment; this needn't appear in the formatted
