Doc changes on the trunk will not be in Python 2.2, so let's call it 2.2+.

Save a new version of the productionlist environment for safe-keeping; this
...
will be replaced shortly. See the comments for more details.
2001-12-11 18:47:36 +00:00
Fred Drake
5ed35fd149
Add a new environment in the Python docs markup: seealso*. This is similar
...
to seealso, but does not add the "See also:" header or put the content in a
box in the HTML version.
Updated the description of \seeurl to better indicate when it should be used;
the old description was written before we had \seetitle.
2001-11-30 18:09:54 +00:00

Post-release bumps. Do *NOT* merge into the 2.2b2 branch.

Fix stupid bug recently introduced for DVI version of the docs (used to
...
generate PostScript).
2001-11-02 20:53:19 +00:00
Fred Drake
e59feb5edc
Revise the PDF support in the LaTeX style sheet. This still isn't quite
...
right, but the tests for whether we are generating PDF are a bit more
readable, and some unnecessary indirection has been removed.
2001-10-29 21:02:28 +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.

Fred Drake

Added this LaTeX style file to the package since not all LaTeX installations
...
have it, especially on non-Unix platforms. (MikTeX in particular does not
have it.)
This is part of the response to SF patch #429611 .

Separate the version number and release status into two separate values.
2001-06-20 21:33:13 +00:00
Fred Drake
c65218e1fd
Add a little more support for describing version information. This
...
is not pretty, but does what is needed.
2001-06-20 21:17:09 +00:00
Fred Drake
06a01e84b9
Define a new environment, classdesc*, which can be used to document a
...
class without providing any information about the constructor. This
should be used for classes which only exist to act as containers rather
than as factories for instances.
2001-05-11 01:00:30 +00:00
Fred Drake
635a7cfcbb
Sync version number with the current CVS version.
...
(Note that the docs are also being maintained on the 2.1.1 maintenance
branch, so users interested only in corrections and clarifications
can get that.)
2001-04-18 05:02:01 +00:00

Import the alltt package and wrap that environment in a similar way to
...
the way we handle verbatim, so that it picks up the same indentation and
minipage behavior.
2001-04-10 15:53:06 +00:00
Fred Drake

In the typeset versions, the legal notices had grown past the one-page
...
size. This constrains them to fit in one page again.
2001-04-10 05:26:29 +00:00

Commit this so CVS doesn't keep noticing the next version number.
2001-02-14 20:53:07 +00:00
Fred Drake
31ab298df6
Remove the dollar sign from the formatting of environment variables --
...
too Unix-specific, and not really needed. (Already fixed the HTML
formatting, but forgot to mention it in the checkin for python.perl 1.94.)
2001-01-22 17:50:42 +00:00

Note that readframes() returns data in linear format, even if the original
...
is encoded in u-LAW format. Based on suggestion from Anthony Baxter

This closes bug #122273 .

Fix \withsubitem so that it actually works if the only indexing macro in
...
the content body is the \ttindex macro, which seems to match actual usage.
Adjust \funcline to restore the "index sub-item" for functions to be
" (in module <name>)" instead of " (in <name>)". This is need to match
uses of \withsubitem throughout the documentation. (Not ideal, but
gets achieves consistency.)
2000-10-30 06:22:22 +00:00
Fred Drake
a33c566138
Avoid using \withsubitem and \ttindex internally; they have not proven
...
to be very robust. Using \index directly fixes a lot of entries in the
index that had to be specifically read to determine that they had the
wrong parenthesized description.
2000-10-29 05:19:16 +00:00

Remove second horizontal line below table headers; it is just too

distracting.

Add new environments: longtableii, longtableiii, and longtableiv, to

support long tables which might break across page boundaries. Otherwise
identical to tableii, tableiii, and tableiv.

Use the \setshortversion macro to specify the abbreviated version number.
...
This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318 .
Fix the release number -- this is supposed to be the *Python* release,
not the documentation release! The later is given by the combination of
the Python release number and the date. Add a comment so I can keep it
straight.
2000-09-14 20:28:26 +00:00

\shortversion,

\setshortversion: New markup to help deal with Python having a "real"

Fix PDF generation.
...
The \\ introduced in the \author in boilerplate.tex broke the PDF
generation because line breaks are not allowed in the "Document Info"
metadata stored in the PDF file. This changes the line break to
a ", " (comma-space) in that context.
2000-09-05 15:19:56 +00:00
Fred Drake

Minor nit to make this work a little better with the PDF generation fix.

\programopt: New macro, used to mark command-line parameters in the
...
text. Looks like \program.
\citetitle: New macro, used to mark titles of cited works (like the
names of the Python manuals). Accepts & discards an
optional parameter that is only used by the HTML
formatter. Looks like \emph.

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.

\declaremodule: Typo.

Fred Drake
5bc8d99bce
\declaremodule: Make this more robust. Only attempt to add an index
...
entry based on the module type if the type is known.
Otherwise, spit out a warning the the module type
parameter was bad and generate a "plain" index entry.
Without this, the bad module type was emitted as
text.
Problem noticed by processing Michael Hudson's docs for
bytecodehacks.

Add some (commented out) macros to change the page size to the size of
...
typical published manuals, so people can more easily see what they're
really asking for. ;-)
Revise the verbatim environment: simple implementation, but more
compatible if a document also add \usepackage{verbatim} at the
beginning.
Declare \modindex, \bimodindex, \exmodindex, and \stmodindex
obsolete. These still work just fine, but \declaremodule should be
used instead. The obsolete macros will print a warning on standard
out.
