This directory contains the source to the Python documentation.

Unfortunately it's not not very readable, complete or up-to-date yet --
|
|
in other words, I'm still working on it!
|
|
|
|
There are four documents and a macro file:
|
|
|
|
macros.ms macros .so'ed by the documents
|
|
|
|
tut.ms informal tutorial
|
|
mod.ms description of standard modules
|
|
ref.ms Python language reference manual (embryonic)
|
|
paper.ms conference paper about Python (embryonic)
|
|
|
|
XXX There should also be a man page (extracted from sec. 2 of the tutorial)
|
|
|
|
To typeset one of the documents on the default Postscript printer, chdir
|
|
to this directory (otherwise the macros aren't found!) and issue the
|
|
command
|
|
|
|
pstroff -ms file.ms
|
|
|
|
When typesetting all documents, issue a separate command for each.
|
|
|
|
You can also use the Makefile, at your own risk.
