Thomas Heller e61f365b0b Document the available command line flags for bdist_wininst, which are
avaliable in the Python 2.2 branch.

I've left out some flags which are more thought for debugging, if
someone needs them, he can always look at the output of --help.

I'm sure Fred will make some adjustments, so I'll only mark this as a
2.2 bugfix candidate.

There are more options available in the current CVS bdist_wininst,
I will document them after this is in.

Thomas Heller 36343f63fe Correct typo: the option is 'formats' not 'format'. 2002-11-15 19:20:56 +00:00
Tim Peters a1d004af04 Style guide reformats. I saw this test fail on a very heavily loaded
Win98SE box, but whatever the cause, it had scrolled off the DOS box.
(There was just the "test_queue failed" summary at the end of the
regrtest run.)

Fred Drake 49b33fa4cb Squash an enormous number of warnings reported when adding "use
warnings;" to this, and keep the "use" statement this time.

Fix an obscure bug that caused weird index entries to be generated in
a few cases, and a minor problem with horizontal alignmetn of the last
column of 5-column tables.

[I'd report a SF bug #, but I can't get to that right now.]

Tim Peters 6c629957fd Repaired typos in the Tcl/Tk compilation instructions. Turns out they
work on Win98SE too (yay!).

Fred Drake 3a2cda876b Minor revisions to clarify the status of xreadlines(), change the way
iteration support was documented; the docs for __iter__() were just
confusing.

Andrew M. Kuchling 3a7f405f5b Draft a section on modifying Python's path. I'm not sure where
this section fits best in inst.tex's organization; Fred or someone, feel
   free to move it.

Jack Jansen 26e6be3572 First stab at a Makefile that will create a MacPython that uses the
Apple-installed Python 2.2 from /usr/bin as it's underlying engine.
All the MacPython stuff is installed into /Applications/MacPython-OSX,
and .pth files and other magic are used to tie everything together.

So far only the raw windowing interpreter and BuildApplet work.

Jack Jansen 4ea1f455d7 Go from filename to FSSpec via FSRefs, to work around outdated macfs module
in python 2.2.

Jack Jansen d892d4e1c0 Make the Resources directory if needed. 2002-11-15 00:07:31 +00:00
Jack Jansen 180ceedc09 Python 2.2 as installed by Apple has a version of _Res that is too old. We
attempt to load an override version in this case.
2002-11-15 00:06:52 +00:00
Jack Jansen 25e61d9e0a Added a hack so we can build applets with a MacPython that uses the
OSX 10.2 apple-supplied Python as its base: if we've copied a symlink
as the executable we remove it and install appletrunner in stead.
2002-11-15 00:05:47 +00:00
Jack Jansen b54a6ce154 A script to run applets. Originally by Just, slightly modified by me. 2002-11-15 00:04:09 +00:00

Tim Peters 857fb4c136 Windows blurb about new Tcl/Tk release shipped on Windows. 2002-11-14 23:31:58 +00:00
Tim Peters 077736b96b Windows changes to move from Tcl/Tk 8.3.2 to 8.4.1. I tested this by
running IDLE, and since I'm not a Tcl Guy I'm not sure what else to do.
Up to you!  See XXX comments in PCbuild\readme.txt for cautions.

Also repaired typos in the new bz2-for-Windows instructions.
2002-11-14 23:24:40 +00:00
Tim Peters 9a6b8d8cf8 Repaired illegal syntax most compilers probably let slide (but MSVC
treats as a fatal error).

Guido van Rossum b9ba45894a Checking in Greg Ward's Optik, as optparse.py. This is the most
recent version from Greg's CVS.  I've changed the module docstring,
added a copyright notice, and renamed OptikError to OptParseError.

Still to do are documentation and unit tests.

Guido van Rossum 9a81892100 Fix or disable some tests that were affected by the new C3 MRO
algorithm, and add some new tests for the C3 algorithm.
2002-11-14 19:50:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1f1213120e Use the new C3 MRO algorithm, implemented by Samuele Pedroni (SF patch
619475; also closing SF bug 618704).  I tweaked his code a bit for
style.

This raises TypeError for MRO order disagreements, which is an
improvement (previously these went undetected) but also a degradation:
what if the order disagreement doesn't affect any method lookups?
I don't think I care.

Thomas Heller c7aaf953fa Enhancement for ModuleFinder, it can now handle _xmlplus aka PyXML.
Fixes SF # 637835.
2002-11-14 18:45:11 +00:00
Tim Peters c293704e93 This uses only one temp file at a time, so use test_support.TESTFN as
the name instead of enduring nanny "security warnings" from
tempfile.mktemp().

Skip Montanaro 649698f72e initial rough cut at documentation of logging module. This is basically
just a conversion of pydoc.help(logging).

Andrew M. Kuchling 9a38dcf057 [Bug #599248] ext module generation problem
If you have source files srcdir1/foo.c and srcdir2/foo.c, the
temporary .o for both files is written to build/temp.<platform>/foo.o.
This patch sets strip_dir to false for both calls to object_filename,
so now the object files are written to temp.<platform>/srcdir1/foo.o
and .../srcdir2/foo.o.

Eric S. Raymond b2db587b11 Make nntplib aware of ~/.netrc credentials; now they get used if they are
present and the caller has not specified a name/password pair.  This change
makes it less likely that a lazy coder will expose sensitive information in a
word-readable script.

Also, make the test a bit smarter.  If NNTPSERVER is defined in the environment
it will go talk to that server rather than look for a possibly nonexistent
local one named 'news'.  Maybe the osession initializer ought to look at
NNTPSERVER rather than requiring a host arg?  Must look around and see how
universal this convention is first.
