Just doc and NEWS here, about the change in gc.garbage meaning.
2001-11-03 19:57:21 +00:00
Tim Peters 7533587d43 Improved error msg when a symbolic group name is redefined. Added docs
and NEWS.  Bugfix candidate?  That's a dilemma for Anthony <wink>:  /F
did fix a longstanding bug here, but the fix can cause code to raise an
exception that previously worked by accident.

Andrew M. Kuchling bc4a1c2588 [Patch #476612] Change docs to describe PEP247 interface 2001-11-02 21:44:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 622087a3ed Fix stupid bug recently introduced for DVI version of the docs (used to
generate PostScript).
2001-11-02 20:53:19 +00:00
Fred Drake d9272d6f11 Add deprecation notice to statcache. 2001-11-02 20:20:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 67bd68392c Make sure there are no weird nesting behaviors; the PDF version will not
format if there are (building the "bookmarks" for the reader breaks).
2001-11-02 19:41:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 3808045d00 Correct misspelling of "separate" in two places.
This closes SF bug #476898.

Andrew M. Kuchling 433b5c4d34 Rewrites and additions resulting from today's feedback 2001-10-30 21:36:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 345b8df2c4 Always use --dvips-safe when generating HTML for the standard documentation
since we do not have anything that causes dvips to be run except when
PostScript is specifically requested, which is a separate target.
2001-10-30 16:28:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 3ce28e4bd0 Add a new option, --dvips-safe, which sets the $DVIPS_SAFE option in
LaTeX2HTML.  This is not safe to do in general (for the reasons LaTeX2HTML
protects against dvips to begin with), but is safe if we do not actually
need to run dvips.  Note that we also assume it is safe if the user
specifically requests PostScript generation.  See the comments for further
explanation.

2001-10-30 06:23:14 +00:00
Fred Drake b4ea9d0502 Promote built-in functions to come before built-in types. 2001-10-30 06:22:02 +00:00
Tim Peters 003047a5f2 Mention the new file() builtin in the section on file objects. 2001-10-30 05:54:04 +00:00
Tim Peters a427a2b8d0 Rename "dictionary" (type and constructor) to "dict". 2001-10-29 22:25:45 +00:00
Fred Drake e59feb5edc Revise the PDF support in the LaTeX style sheet. This still isn't quite
right, but the tests for whether we are generating PDF are a bit more
readable, and some unnecessary indirection has been removed.

Fred Drake b0109ffb3b Ignore all *.tex files in the typesetting output directories since there are
a bunch of them now.
2001-10-29 17:42:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 520b0093db Make sure we generate versions of each file in the Python/C API manual with
reference-count annotations; this is needed for the typeset forms of the
manuals.
