Fred Drake 0cf785a7a7 Grammatical nit. 1998-01-09 22:37:52 +00:00
Fred Drake cf7e830869 Add module reference for cPickle to index. 
Consistency:  Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.

Consistency:  Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.

Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP".  I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.
 1998-01-09 22:36:51 +00:00

Fred Drake c4586387f6 In description of \D, revise markup so that the caret shows up in the HTML 
version as well as the dvi form.  Without the fix, it showed up as an extra
zero character.

Bug reported by Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk>.
 1998-01-06 15:46:21 +00:00

Fred Drake 875c807c92 In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals; 
"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html
output (the font was right).  Changed to "\code{{\e}(}" variation, which
fixes both.  Breaks the .texi file generation again.  Oh well.
 1998-01-02 02:50:13 +00:00

 1997-12-29 21:42:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 78f8e98232 Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by 
the info generation phases.  Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call.  It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
 1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00
Fred Drake a007c13094 Reduce warning count from partparse.py.

 1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 45c9df6636 Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is 
rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
 1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 7f96291ee2 Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to

(at least) some browsers.

Guido van Rossum e903aab833 Replace unprotected tilders by \~ -- an unprotected tilde is a 
non-breaking space!
 1997-12-18 16:28:56 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c6ef83f4 Change {\em ...} to \emph{...}; this seems to be the developing preference 
throughout the manuals, and seems easier to read.

 1997-12-16 14:54:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d2f7d414d Oops, ".pythonrc.py" should *always* be marked with \file{}; one occurrance

Fred Drake e907208b30 Some reorganization (all limit operations & constants together, and all usage 
functions and constants together).

Make explicit datadesc sections for each of the constants which might appear,
and have a description of each.  (Descriptions are based on the Linux
documentation and sources and the Solaris man pages.)

Hopefully Jeremy won't mind, because I didn't ask.  ;-)
 1997-12-06 07:25:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 0d3b4f8beb Fixed unresolved reference problem; this module wasn't \label{}ed. 
Remove spurious underscore following book title.  Added specific reference to
a Win32 networking book.

Changed \indexsubitem from (in module SocketServer) to (SocketServer protocol),
since it's talking about a protocol supported by a collection of classes.
 1997-12-04 14:36:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 98b032a7c0 Removed unnecessary escaping. 1997-12-04 14:20:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 1cf87496a6 Arg; more nits, but I may as well finish the job. 
Removed the large comment remaining from the template documentation
section; the template tells us to remove these once they're not needed.

Remove some trailing whitespace from VM instruction pseudo-code.
 1997-12-04 04:57:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 7381e28399 Fixed BINARY_RSHIFT documentation to indicate a right shift instead of a left 
shift.

Adjust whitespace around "=" in VM machine descriptions to be consistent
throughout the document.
 1997-12-04 04:51:12 +00:00
Fred Drake c2297c1ce9 Changed {\sc gdbm} to \code{gdbm} everywhere. 
Fixed \indexsubitem to gdbm instead of dbm.

Changed dbm to \code{dbm} everywhere.
 1997-12-04 04:45:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab76af3d65 Provide default for blocksize on retrbinary (Skip Montanaro). 1997-12-03 19:34:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 456035f4b1 The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions 
to use the opcodedesc environment.

Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.

Fixed a typo:  "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.

Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent.  Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me.  It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project.  Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.
 1997-12-03 04:06:57 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 240ddc8a68 Typo in example (missing '=') discovered by Sandy Langbart. 1997-12-02 20:08:06 +00:00

Fred Drake 798654fc68 Added \indexsubitem definition; functions were previously indexed for the 
wrong module.
 1997-11-30 05:53:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 2478f9d5a2 Added \indexsubitem definition. Non-optimal, but two modules are sharing 
the documentation here.

Fred Drake 92796d1f01 Added \indexsubitem definition; functions were previously indexed for the 
wrong module.
 1997-11-30 05:27:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 7730cc067f Updated \indexsubitem; functions had been indexed for the wrong module. 1997-11-30 05:23:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73ec2c0081 Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally 
messed up (but not checked in) version in my work files and didn't
notice before releasing 1.5 -- at least the distributed latex file
doesn't have the bogus warning about changed __init__ semantics.
 1997-11-27 01:39:15 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ee9f820cf1 Documented brand new behavior of sys.ps1 and sys.ps2 (str() is applied 
to get the actual prompt).
 1997-11-25 21:12:27 +00:00
Fred Drake e624e0f99e Removed leading comment about this being "introductory" documentation; 
compared to most, I'd say this section is fairly thorough.

Fixed \indexsubitem definitions for symbol and token module sub-documents.
Perhaps these should be moved to their own files, but they're awefully
small.
 1997-11-25 04:04:00 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f259efe3d9 Get rid of math mode in some places. 1997-11-25 01:00:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3e1e274d0b Don't use $math$ mode to typeset a simple '>' sign. Use \code, not \samp. 1997-11-25 00:43:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9d62e80e46 Remove strange use of $math$ mode to produce a backslash. 1997-11-25 00:35:44 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 3472026347 Add description for Queue; fix typo (whichdbm should be whichdb). 1997-11-20 21:00:03 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 17c8e781c0 libqueue.tex: Documentation for the Queue.py module. 
Makefile: Add dependency on libqueue.tex

lib.tex: Place the libqueue.tex documentation just after libthread.tex
since Queue depends on thread support in Python.
 1997-11-20 19:54:16 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 4552f3d6de In the description of sub(), give a better explanation of the 
interface when repl is a function.  Also give a simple example of
using a function repl.
 1997-11-20 00:15:13 +00:00

Fred Drake ae18e9fc1c Removed obsolete discussion on _xdr helper module. 1997-10-24 21:14:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d7dc2eb708 Put {} around \^ in sets to force latex2html to do the right thing... 1997-10-22 03:03:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 828a0bdb1d count() now has a 4th parameter too. Also rephrased the docs for find 
to use the same, better words to explain start/end.
 1997-10-20 22:40:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 871cf161f1 Documented exc_info(); also updated exc_type and last_type docs. 1997-10-20 22:38:43 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 6cd7ecb10b The sequence behavior is now on the Exception root class rather than 
on the StandardError class.
 1997-10-07 14:41:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 6f2a26d42b And "ni" has been documented... 1997-10-06 21:53:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 2df75832b3 Oops; don't know if this was my typo or not: There was a "p" on a line that 
should have been blank.
 1997-10-06 21:52:31 +00:00
Fred Drake c211254334 Updated the section "Parsing Python". 1997-10-06 21:41:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 14bf341f16 Added keyword module entry. 1997-10-06 21:40:48 +00:00
Fred Drake e061a51de1 Minor nits (Lib/token.py is a file, token is a module...). 
Added docs for symbol and token modules at the end.
 1997-10-06 21:40:20 +00:00
Fred Drake db12f343bc Documentation for the keyword module. 1997-10-06 21:39:16 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 3cdb8f3286 Update the description and the example to the new functionality, which 
is mostly concentrated in a generalized find_module() and the new
load_module().  Added the new module type constants.  Declare that
SEARCH_ERROR and a whole bunch of module-type-specific functions are
obsolete.
 1997-09-09 20:53:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9cf4e2bde7 Change packages to site-packages (so it's clearly not a package itself). 1997-09-08 02:02:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 16221126d6 Added warning about ni's obsolescence. Retracted semantic changes 
(i.e. when using ni, the old __init__.py semantics prevail!)
 1997-09-07 03:02:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 593801142e Initial revision 1997-09-07 02:56:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f01dff7e93 Give in to Mike Meyer -- add *both* lib/python1.5/packages and 
lib/site-python to the path (if they exist).  This is a reasonable
compromise.
 1997-09-03 22:05:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 28cad964ec Document newly revamped site configuration mechanism. 
Damn the criticism in c.l.p!
 1997-08-30 20:03:28 +00:00

(which had UserDict/UserList) to libuserdict.tex.
 1997-08-30 20:02:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2afc811c2 Added os.altsep; this is '/' on DOS/Windows, and None on systems with 
a sane filename syntax.
 1997-08-29 22:37:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 282290f821 Referred to POSIX docs as well as to Unix docs. 1997-08-27 14:54:25 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 81e479a11f Removed some colons that shouldn't be there (probably leftovers from 
docstring conversion).
