Eric S. Raymond f79cb2db3e Expose the autoraise capability. Improve the documentation. 2001-01-23 13:49:44 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond aeb5532ca0 Oops...finish a mangled sentence. 2001-01-23 13:22:28 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond f7f185116a Rewrite webbrowser.py to fix various bugs following Ka-Ping Yee's
complaints.  The new version moves most of its initialization to
package load time; it's simpler, faster, smaller, and adds support for
Mozilla and Links.  Interpretation of the BROWSER variable now works
and is documented.  The open_new entry point and methods are marked
"deprecated; may be removed in 2.1".

Tim Peters f87d857080 Restore alphabetic order. Also try to import rlcompleter and curses, but
don't fail if they're not available.

Guido van Rossum 1e33bdcb76 Added notes about setup.py and cygwin build; removed note about
the previous auto-configuring modules feature (already obsolete :-).

Tim Peters 755f4c1035 Added -O option (to run python or python_d w/ -O), 2001-01-23 02:42:09 +00:00
cvs2svn 6ac3c7b588 This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create tag 'r21a1'. 2001-01-23 01:57:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d0e74eac6b Clean up some comments and the default VERSION. 2001-01-23 01:57:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 25b163d579 Get rid of weird @SET_CXX@ and @SET_DLLLIBRARY@ macro occurrences. 2001-01-23 01:54:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c201bf46b9 Get rid of weird @SET_CXX@ macro occurrence. 2001-01-23 01:53:41 +00:00

Guido van Rossum ca563f228a The usual 2001-01-23 01:52:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 275529087d Fix some make errors during "make clobber" or "make distclean", caused
by weird and (hopefully) unnecessary SET_CXX and SET_DLLLIBRARY macros
that occurr at the start of Makefile.in files.

- Also removed the already-commented-out SET_CCC macro cruft.

Jeremy Hylton 578ceee042 Add simple test of list comprehension that uses a name that isn't
otherwise used in the same code block.  (Not sure this is the right
place, but there is no test_list_comprehensions.py.)
2001-01-23 01:51:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2528b19a86 Use PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() instead of PyThreadState_Delete()
and PyEval_ReleaseThread().

This fixes SF bug #125673 PyThreadState_Delete: invalid tstate (Unix
only?).
2001-01-23 01:47:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2975786dec Add a new API, PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() that combines
PyThreadState_Delete() and PyEval_ReleaseLock().  It is only defined
if WITH_THREAD is defined.
2001-01-23 01:46:06 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 5f827f4e9b Visit the initial test element of the listmaker for a list
comprehension.  Fixes bug reported by Tim Peters.
2001-01-23 01:26:20 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 1113cfc767 prevent symtable_params() from dereferencing off the end of the
varagslist node. based on fix from Thomas Wouters.
2001-01-23 00:50:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 89a27ec01c A few more contributors. 2001-01-23 00:06:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d0f5e70016 - Use "exec ... in dict" to avoid having to walk on eggshells; locals
no don't have to start with underscore.

- Add spaces after commas in argument lists.

- Only test dbhash if bsddb can be imported.  (Wonder if there are
  more like this?)

Tim Peters 763cb0aa44 Typo repair. 2001-01-22 22:43:35 +00:00
Tim Peters e935816164 Reorganize pickle/cPickle testing so the tests pass regardless of the order
they're run.

Fred Drake da6daee439 A variety of updates of out-of-date information. 2001-01-22 21:38:09 +00:00
Fred Drake bc3974c03b When generating the source package, copy in the LICENSE file from the main
source directory.
2001-01-22 21:34:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 9c3b9b76c1 Never mind ignoring a copied LICENSE file; let's do this another way. 2001-01-22 21:31:38 +00:00
Fred Drake e94b9f9d3c Ignore the generated LICENSE file needed for the documentation source
package.
2001-01-22 21:07:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 3a045e8993 Change the main targets to generate HTML instead of PostScript.
Update the comments at the beginning of the file.
2001-01-22 20:47:26 +00:00
Fred Drake dc40ac0fe0 Added link to the "Python Codecs" project at SourceForge.
Changed markup of the list of values for the list of meaningful "errors"
values.
2001-01-22 20:17:54 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 91834c6c7e Added dictionary.popitem() and the improved XML modules.
Reorder the smaller items, roughly in decreasing order of visibility to
   the Python coder
Finished an incomplete sentence.
Moved the unwritten sections down to the bottom.
Bumped version number and added acknowledgements
2001-01-22 19:51:13 +00:00
Fred Drake d74804db41 The "user" module cannot reasonably be tested. Moved to the end (and
commented it out), and added an explanation as to *why*.

Added period to docstring.
2001-01-22 19:38:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7f9b5e014b OK, changed my mind once more on this. The comparison hierarchy is
now

    None < all numeric types < all other types

so that once again

    map(max, Squares(3), Squares(2))

equals

    [0, 1, 4]
2001-01-22 19:30:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0871e9315e New special case in comparisons: None is smaller than any other object
(unless the object's type overrides this comparison).
2001-01-22 19:28:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f564eaceb Change some wording to make this work with PDF generation -- using a PDF
hyperlink at the start of the paragraph confused pdflatex; it saw the
link start while still in vertical mode, which is not allowed.  Including
text before the link forces horizontal mode.
2001-01-22 19:06:20 +00:00
Fred Drake bcb09fa33f Worked around bug SF #125880: changed the text of three sections that
really nasty TeX source to "bleed" into the PDF "bookmarks".
2001-01-22 18:38:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 5f0decf0d3 Clean up the docs for the "random" module according to comments from Tim
Peters.

This closes SF bug #125919.
2001-01-22 18:18:30 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling f228fd10d9 Add reference to PEP 232.
Use correct flag name Py_TPFLAGS_CHECKTYPES
Mention that numeric methods can return Py_NotImplemented (NAS)
Mention optional arguments in time modules (TW)
Various minor rewrites and additional attributions
2001-01-22 17:52:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 31ab298df6 Remove the dollar sign from the formatting of environment variables --
too Unix-specific, and not really needed.  (Already fixed the HTML
formatting, but forgot to mention it in the checkin for python.perl 1.94.)
2001-01-22 17:50:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a8690a0ad Make "PythonLabs" bold. 2001-01-22 17:48:23 +00:00
Fred Drake c8e8281fb6 Updated note about collection of cyclic garbage, based on comments from
Chris Ryland.
2001-01-22 17:46:18 +00:00
Fred Drake ef8cd7ca99 Minor markup adjustment. 2001-01-22 17:42:32 +00:00
Fred Drake afc7ce118e Fix \seepep handling -- correct URL to the online PEP repository on SF is
now generated.  (SF bug #129692.)

Patch from Anthon van der Neut <anthon@mnt.org>:
Work around the removal of content-less paired tags used for name
anchors in some places.  (SF bug #116008.)

Move some class attributes from an artificial SPAN element to otherwise
"useful" elements that are being generated anyway.  Added the class
"versionnote", used for \deprecated, \versionadded, \versionchanged.
2001-01-22 17:33:24 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 76b642d28a Remove include-file-dependant half-prototype of clnt_create(). 2001-01-22 16:50:11 +00:00
Jack Jansen a07d37f1fc Regenerated (shoulnd't make a difference). 2001-01-22 16:27:54 +00:00
Jack Jansen 391f40e9f0 Unicodedatabase.c has gone. 2001-01-22 16:26:46 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling b216ab632f Fill out various transcripts and XXX bits, thanks to the WMATA.
The only missing section is the Nested Scopes section, which has to wait
    to see if a patch is actually committed.  (Plus any other notable changes
    that get made or backed out between now and 2.1final, of course...)
2001-01-22 16:15:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d9bae8b95a Numeric-smelling objects now once again compare smaller than
non-numeric ones, so 4 < None again in the 'map' test.
2001-01-22 16:01:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8f9143da33 Once again, numeric-smelling objects compare smaller than non-numeric
ones.
2001-01-22 15:59:32 +00:00
Jack Jansen af4c942b8a Better test for skipping project creation: the project file should also exist and be newer than the xml file, and the .exp should exist. 2001-01-22 15:38:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a120ffcf12 SF Patch #103185, by jlt63: Some more standard modules cleanup for Cygwin 2001-01-22 15:29:14 +00:00
