Lots of new text and example code on embedding Python in C, contributed
...
by Albert Hofkamp. Some editing has been done for style and markup
consistency.
This also supplies an example of importing modules and calling a function
defined in the module, so this closes SF bug #440037 as well.
(The long example code was moved to a separate file so that it would
format properly.)

Add a caveat about boundary conditions and RE concatenation, so that the
...
documents do not make an overly-strong assertion about the properties of
RE concatenation.

Fixed description of RE modifiers so that RE{#} and RE{#,} are more

Look to the future: bump the version number.

Do more to ensure we don't do any more formatting than we need to.
Use separate targets for the distribution packages for paper-based and
non-paper-based formats; this avoids some extra packaging when a complete
distribution is being built with both paper sizes.

Change the command lines to use a similar "phrasing" to that used in the

other documentation makefiles. This is probably not sufficient to run
the conversion on Windows, but goes at least part way.

"Make small changes, but carry a big diff."

Minor local consistency adjustments.
A couple of small tweaks to the setdlopenflags() description.
For setprofile() and settrace(), convert some references to become

1385a57b85
Bump the release number.
...
Make the syntax of compound command lines more portable (nmake, CygWin).
These changes are an adaptation of SF patch #429611 .
Use the new tools/rewrite.py instead of grep/date/sed to transform
html/index.html.in into html/index.html; this is required for portability.
2001-07-17 16:53:19 +00:00
16649a803b
Make the syntax for compound command lines more portable (nmake, CygWin).
...
This is probably not sufficient by itself for the info generation, and is
being done mostly to keep the style consistent with additional patches
that will be applied to Doc/Makefile.
2001-07-17 16:48:55 +00:00
3cae66bdbc
Script to re-write @FOO@-style marks with values, initializing the
...
replacement for @DATE@ from a TeX file containing a \date{...} mark
(such as texinputs/boilerplate.tex).
This will be used to re-write the html/index.html.in file instead of
a combination of grep, date, and sed -- this is more portable to non-Unix
platforms.
This solves part of the problem reported in SF patch #429611 , but does
not use the suggested patch.
2001-07-17 16:46:14 +00:00

Updated the documentation in several respects:
...
- This module, despite its name, now should conform to RFC 2822, the
update to RFC 822.
- This module doesn't just represent "email headers", but entire email
messages.
- Added documentation for other useful public functions such as
quote(), unquote(), praseaddr(), and dump_address_pair().
