Fred Drake 15eac1f95c Fix markup nits. 2003-05-20 16:21:51 +00:00
Tim Peters dbaf04ead6 Straighten out the docs for os.system(); the Unix and Windows behaviors 
really can't be smushed together.

Bugfix candidate.
 2003-05-20 16:15:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bf1bef820c Add optional 'onerror' argument to os.walk(), to control error 
handling.
 2003-05-13 18:01:19 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 52136a8bea Fixed spacing and unbalanced brackets or parenthesis. 2003-05-10 03:35:37 +00:00
Tim Peters a390c6e194 walk() docs: Emphasize that the recursive-delete example is dangerous. 2003-04-28 19:15:10 +00:00
Tim Peters 5501b5e3d7 SF bug 728097: tmpnam problems on windows 2.3b, breaks test.test_os. 
tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke
the test for Irmen de Jong.  Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam()
for details.  Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good
if we supplied a different implementation.

Bugfix candidate.

Tim Peters bf89b3a1f7 walk() docs: Worked "walking" into the description and the text. Added 
a brief example where bottom-up walking is essential.

Fred Drake 2194a4eede markup adjustments 2003-04-25 14:50:06 +00:00
Tim Peters c4e0940042 New generator os.walk() does a bit more than os.path.walk() does, and 
seems much easier to use.  Code, docs, NEWS, and additions to test_os.py
(testing this sucker is a bitch!).

Tim Peters 2d1c846b73 Clarified new fsync() docs. 2003-04-23 19:47:14 +00:00
Tim Peters 11b2306960 Enable os.fsync() for Windows, mapping it to MS's _commit() there. The 
docs here are best-guess:  the MS docs I could find weren't clear, and
some even claimed _commit() has no effect on Win32 systems (which is
easily shown to be false just by trying it).

Fred Drake 5c7b2487cd - explain what a UNC path is in the makedirs() description, since 
they're actually mentioned there

Just van Rossum 96b1c903f5 Patch #683592 revisited, after discussions with MvL: 
- Implement the behavior as specified in PEP 277, meaning os.listdir()
  will only return unicode strings if it is _called_ with a unicode
  argument.
- And then return only unicode, don't attempt to convert to ASCII.
- Don't switch on Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, but simply use the
  default encoding if Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding is NULL. This means
  os.listdir() can now raise UnicodeDecodeError if the default encoding
  can't represent the directory entry. (This seems better than silcencing
  the error and fall back to a byte string.)
- Attempted to decribe the above in Doc/lib/libos.tex.
- Reworded the Misc/NEWS items to reflect the current situation.

This checkin also fixes bug #696261, which was due to os.listdir() not
using Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, like all file system calls are
supposed to.
