@ -95,6 +95,15 @@ unsigned integer \code{1} is packed first, followed by the data value
from the list. \var{pack_item} is the function that is called to pack
the individual item. At the end of the list, an unsigned integer
\code{0} is packed.
For example, to pack a list of integers, the code might appear like
this:
\begin{verbatim}
import xdrlib
p = xdrlib.Packer()
p.pack_list([1, 2, 3], p.pack_int)
\end{verbatim}
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}[Packer]{pack_farray}{n, array, pack_item}
