Fred Drake d82af0b8ec Remove all use of $* in commands; some makes (Solaris 2.5, IRIX 6.X)
only expand this in dependency lists.  Thanks for Sjoerd Mullendar for
pointing this out.

Guido van Rossum 82eae9eaa7 Added mt_interact() -- multithreaded version of interact().
interact() automatically uses this on Windows (where the
single-threaded version doesn't work).

Guido van Rossum db01ee0e22 Patch by Mike Meyer:
Extended the rfc822 parsedate routines to handle the cases they failed
on in an archive of ~37,000 messages.  I believe the changes are
compatible, in that all previously correct parsing are still correct.

[I still see problems with some messages, but no showstoppers.]

Guido van Rossum 9a4d63730e Patch by Mike Meyer:
Add a class to mailbox.py for dealing with qmail directory mailboxes.

Guido van Rossum 99e1131536 Avoid crash in parsedate_tz() on certain invalid dates -- when the
field assumed to be the time is in fact the year, the resulting list
doesn't have enough items, and this isn't checked for.  Return None
instead.

Fred Drake 32f7ae0066 Fix many of the specific targets in links from the index.
In a number of places, I called next_argument() instead of
next_argument_id() when the ID was also needed.  (7 places)

Fred Drake 5cb48a4c98 Added a \versionchanged since the API changed to support
namespaces with 1.5.2.

1998-12-22 18:46:13 +00:00

Fred Drake 782c973cb9 Added libnetrc.tex and libshlex.tex to LIBFILES. 1998-12-22 17:40:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c822a453bd Add warning to Netrc's docstring that it is obsolete -- use the netrc

with documentation.)
