        Minor markup nits in description.

Fred Drake a7ce52b03a Typo reported by Gerry Wiener <wiener@rap.ucar.edu>:
items -> item

The returned list will then have one more items than the number of
non-overlapping occurrences of the separator in the string.

Fred Drake 8e729ec31a Caught a few more spurious \setindexsubitem macros.... 1998-04-07 22:06:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 3a0351cf85 Remove all uses of \sectcode; we can now use logical markup everywhere. 1998-04-04 07:23:21 +00:00
Fred Drake d275de985a Remove obsolete lines like this:
\setindexsubitem{(in module frobnitz)}

These are no longer needed when present before any other \setindexsubitem{}
in the module section.  The indexsubitem is now set by \bimodindex and
\stmodindex.

Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.
1998-03-17 06:33:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
