comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").
There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)
The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules
have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries.
A new docstring was added to formatter. The docstring for os.py
was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.
disturbing the current exception, and returning tb.tb_lineno, which is
the line number of thr traceback, rather than the current line number.
By Jim Hugunin.
Apparently the traceback object doesn't contains the right linenumber
when -O is used. Rather than guessing whether -O is on or off, use
tb_lineno() unconditionally.
* Lib/macpath.py: don't return trailing colon for dirname()
(XXX won't do for volume names -- but otherwise glob(':*:*.py')
loops forever)
* Lib/traceback.py: print SyntaxError correctly
* Lib/stat.py: moved to posixstat.py; added macstat.py which has
the constants for the Mac; and created new stat.py which includes
the right one
* Lib/urllib.py: fix caching bug (by disabling the cache)
