Added a section to the chapter on modules, describing the package system.
...
The text is almost completely from GvR's essay on packages; some
introductory paragraphs have been removed, and everything after the
'Details' section in the HTML has been dropped (seems too technical). A
paragraph has been added after the sample package layout stating that there
must be a file called__init__.py in a directory to make it a package.

Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too.
Made x a \var in descr of pop.

Also added pop to index.

Removed loading of shared font stuff from howto.cls and manual.cls, moving it

Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable

goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it

builtin...
