In IMPORT_NAME description:  "is not affect:" --> "is not affected:"
1998-02-12 03:32:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a72a7e344 Use new \authoraddress{}; author's name and address are now separate.
Use new \release{}; this is now separate from \date{}.

Use \email{} instead of \code{} for email addresses.

Fred Drake 71c1ef34bf Remove second index entry for UserList. 1998-02-12 03:10:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 06f169bb7f \rfcindex{}: Removed; no longer needed.
\file{}:  Use a sans-serif font for the filename itself.

Use the fncychap.sty package for fancy chapter headings.

Replace the \maketitle command with our own format.  This is new, but it
looks a lot better than the old one.

Use \renewcommand instead of \def when extending or overriding standard LaTeX
commands.  This makes it more LaTeX-like.

Guido van Rossum 38e0df330b Some subtleties suggested by Tamito Kajiyama, including an added
\nodename macro for a section with a very underscriptive title.
1998-02-11 22:55:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f5370f4019 Turn the space in [\^ ...] into a hard space: [\^\ ...]. 1998-02-11 22:52:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1c974db134 Split UserDict and UserList on two separate lines; added entries for
modules symbol and token.
1998-02-11 22:36:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ee833cca7b Don't break a long line at an unpleasant point. 1998-02-11 22:34:51 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8b0927eddc Added missing entry for cmath. 1998-02-11 22:33:57 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c57aff20e3 Replace $math$ with \code{}. 1998-02-11 22:33:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c4452fd08f Swap ni and imp (so they are in the same order as their sections are). 1998-02-11 22:32:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 34122fa99c Remove a spurious space from the title. 1998-02-11 22:31:54 +00:00
Fred Drake ed68854b40 "lists objects" --> "list objects" (Section "More on Lists".) 1998-02-11 22:29:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d486b1779 In the appendix, all sections were marked as subsections, and so had section
numbers "A.0.#".  Fixed.
1998-02-11 22:12:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 5d8f0edc33 Add copyright.tex and boilerplate.tex to the common dependencies for .dvi
files.
1998-02-11 14:43:38 +00:00
Fred Drake a28eb3a8cb Mark the URL "ftp://ftp.python.org" with \url{}. 1998-02-11 14:42:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 4254363f25 &do_cmd_rfc: New function. Handles \rfc{}.
$STRIP_INDEX_TT:  New flag.  If set, the <tt>...</tt> around stuff in the index
	is dropped.  This is more O'Reilly-like.

&make_str_index_entry:  Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT.

&make_mod_index_entry:  Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT.
1998-02-10 22:11:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 526467ce0a Removed all references to the \rfcindex{} macro; now only \rfc{} is used. 1998-02-10 21:42:27 +00:00
Fred Drake a94d21f44e Minor performance nits. 1998-02-10 21:35:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 4be00713b8 Include indfix.py script in lib.dvi's processing. 1998-02-09 22:18:42 +00:00
Fred Drake dd244a0b9e Script to fix up the Library Reference index so it's less ugly. The docstring:
"""Combine similar index entries into an entry and subentries.

For example:

  \item {foobar} (in module flotz), 23
  \item {foobar} (in module whackit), 4323

becomes

  \item {foobar}
    \subitem in module flotz, 23
    \subitem in module whackit, 4323

Note that an item which matches the format of a collapsable item but which
isn't part of a group of similar items is not modified.
"""

This results in a much more readable index, with less repitition of text;
especially for common method names.

Fred Drake 1624a507e6 Oops, missed a \POSIX{} in an index entry. 1998-02-09 22:12:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 88223904c8 Add some index entries; switch to logical markup. 1998-02-09 20:52:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 65b32f7f74 Consistently use \POSIX{} to denote POSIX. There were at least two different
ways to do it previously (not counting module names).
1998-02-09 20:27:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 41785fb864 Do the right magic to make \ABC{} get sorted correctly in the index. 1998-02-09 20:16:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 19b97b13fa Do the right magic to make \UNIX{} get sorted correctly in the index. 1998-02-09 20:16:18 +00:00
Fred Drake c58912426e Use the new RFC macros wherever RFCs are referenced by number. No other
changes.
1998-02-09 19:16:20 +00:00
Fred Drake b16166e56f Add macros to insert RFC references much like the \manpage{} macro. Also a
macro to insert an RFC index reference.

(RFC references were formatted three different ways.)
1998-02-09 19:14:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8083c176a3 Add a note about rounding up of readlines()' sizehint to 8K. 1998-02-08 22:51:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6e91c6a344 Document getrefcount(). 1998-02-07 21:17:05 +00:00
Fred Drake b37a395231 \itembreak, \itemjoin: Remove unused macros.
\idxcode{}:  New macro; used to mark things that would be \code{} for entry
	into the index.  This allows easily switching things around for the
	font used in the index.  (O'Reilly seems to keep it all plain roman
	in the index.  Looks reasonable in the Python documentation as well.)

\*index{}:  Use \idxcode{} instead of {\codefont{}}.
1998-02-06 22:52:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 31c4ed75fc Remove commented-out \itembreak. 1998-02-06 22:26:04 +00:00
Fred Drake c660233cfb Update two of the \indexsubitem values to use singular rather than plural form
of "variable": each individual variable should be identified as a single
variable and not a collection in the index.
1998-02-06 22:19:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8e1e68de49 Add ref to errno module, and change ref to posix.error to os.error. 1998-02-06 15:18:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f499e09f94 Add ref to errno module. 1998-02-06 15:18:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum afcd589027 Retract the statement that all functions called by Python (even method
defs) need to be declared extern "C" -- it seems to have no basis in
truth (any more?).
1998-02-05 19:59:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 6b7fc6f267 Add *.pdf files to the clobber target (same target as *.ps). 1998-02-04 20:33:13 +00:00
Fred Drake baf700f398 Tell CVS to ignore PDF files. 1998-02-04 20:27:39 +00:00
Fred Drake b6e5032d9c Added description of "D" format for PyArg_ParseTuple(), including example
use with function name provided as well.

Wrapped up PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() description and provided example
based on Geoff Philbrick's example to the mailing list.
1998-02-04 20:26:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 126d840d1a Use implicit rules to perform DVI->PS and PS->PDF conversions. PDF conversion
requires "distill" from a FrameMaker installation.  ;-)  Would probably need
to be different for Windows/Mac.
1998-02-04 19:54:40 +00:00
Fred Drake b19274704f \modindex{}: New macro; index module without declaring it "built-in" or
"standard".  This is mostly for documentation of modules outside the
	standard library.
1998-02-04 14:43:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 8aad4c80b3 Added missing "{" for "\code <?stuff?>}". 1998-02-03 23:12:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ad37e9e77d Clarify that capwords() removes leading/trailing whitespace.
Remove references to regsub, which is obsolescent.
1998-02-02 03:01:10 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c45c2f3dc1 Add S_ISBLK(). 1998-01-29 22:03:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 02505e4850 New version of xmllib from Sjoerd.
The main incompatibility is that the error reporting method is now
called as
 parser.syntax_error(msg)
instead of
 parser.syntax_error(lineno, msg)

This new version also has some code to deal with the <?xml?> and
<!DOCTYPE> tags at the start of an XML document.
The documentation has been updated, and a small test module has been
created.
1998-01-29 14:55:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7570669a08 Add a note explaining that multiplying a sequence with a negative
number is the same as multiplying it with zero, and yields an empty
sequence.
