Fred Drake f0ebbe0bd0 Re-order some method descriptions for a more logical grouping. 
(Based on reader comment!)
 2001-03-08 22:46:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 9eb41557ef Add more font flavors for <var> elements; the previous incarnation caused 
some NT/IE5.5 users to see only boxes for these characters.  This might be
specific to NT Service Pack 6.
 2001-03-08 22:17:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 859eb62108 Do not refer to "sub-modules" since that is not a defined term. 2001-03-06 07:34:00 +00:00
Fred Drake ac79e95167 Re-word the explanation of the in/not in operators for increased content 
and clarity.

Add a footnote to the information on the possibility of shadowing builtins
with locals & module globals.
 2001-03-06 07:32:11 +00:00
Fred Drake ce7129ea4e Turn "Python Documentation Central" into just "Documentation Central"; some 
Web browsers tried to wrap lines in bad ways, so we avoid the problem by
putting fewer words on the page.
 2001-03-06 07:28:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 2636572d76 Make sure the README files that contain page count information land in 
the right directory (which actually exists).
 2001-03-06 07:22:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 67fdaa4883 Correct typos in Ping's email address. 
Remove premature use of negative indexes in string operation examples;
negative indexes have not been explained at that point, and the use of
negative indexes are not necessary for the examples.
 2001-03-06 07:19:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 990b0fec1a Update documentation to reflect the shift to NetrcParseError instead of 
SyntaxError.
 2001-03-06 06:55:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 0c8f6643c6 Remove debugging "set -x". 2001-03-03 19:57:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 42119e49a9 Fix a few minor markup nits. 2001-03-03 19:47:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 6be838a0c0 Rene Liebscher <R.Liebscher@gmx.de>: 
Added information on using non-Microsoft compilers on Windows.

[Minor edits for markup consistency. --FLD]
 2001-03-03 19:18:01 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 61af5605fa Discuss PEP 236. 
Update nested scope section.
 2001-03-03 03:25:04 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 81df7be2a2 Update estimate bug and patch counts 2001-03-02 21:19:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f4e717c31 Revise the scripts I use to update the documentation on the SourceForge 
site.  These now seem (slightly) more reliable, and easier to work with
since update-docs.sh no longer needs to be installed ahead of time on
my account at SF.
 2001-03-02 21:05:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 93c867139f Lots of organizational changes for consistency with the rest of the 
documentation.

Fix a few small markup nits.
 2001-03-02 20:39:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 80d4c07775 There was a real leak in the "export a C API" example; fix that one. 
(There are too many initspam() functions; they need to be renamed
post-beta.)
 2001-03-02 19:48:06 +00:00
Fred Drake ab357ecf7f Label classes and exceptions explicitly in the documentation (for their 
*desc environments).
 2001-03-02 18:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 0539bfaaa4 There is no longer a -X option to the interpreter, so remove the comments 
on how PyErr_NewException() behaves in that case.

Clarify why an owned reference is kept in an extension module's
variable that refers to the result of PyErr_NewException(); one reader
thought that was a leak.

Clean up some tabs and simplify some markup.
 2001-03-02 18:15:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 043d5e5514 For copyfile(), be explicit that src and dst are file names; that was only 
implied.
 2001-03-02 16:46:42 +00:00
Fred Drake cfef0096f9 Job.build_html(): When formatting HTML into more than one HTML page, and 
not doing the \label{foo} --> foo.html transformation (--numeric was
    specified on the command line), still look to see if there is an
    "About this document..." node and copy that to "about.html", since the
    page footers use that as the target.

Fred Drake 7606e4d00e Added entry for urllib2 documentation. 2001-03-01 19:54:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 8c011580ff Use larger chunks for the HTML version of the Distutils documentation. 2001-03-01 18:38:56 +00:00
Fred Drake a9a83e9ee3 Comment out section titles for sections that have not been written yet; 
there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents
in the online environment since LaTeX2HTML generates lots of tables of links
anyway.

Various markup consistency nits.

there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Fred Drake 2f55b11bf7 cd to the html/ directory to generate the global module index so the links

This was also broken when converting to a flat Makefile.
