Guido van Rossum 124eff0225 Patch by Tim Peters to improve the range checks for range() and
xrange(), especially for platforms where int and long are different
sizes (so sys.maxint isn't actually the theoretical limit for the
length of a list, but the largest C int is -- sys.maxint is the
largest Python int, which is actually a C long).

Guido van Rossum 717d1fdf2a 1. Augment the DG/UX rule so it doesn't break the BeOS build.
2. Add $(EXE) to various occurrences of python so it will work on
   Cygwin with egcs (after setting EXE=.exe).  These patches by
   Norman Vine.

Guido van Rossum 027188a382 According to Jeffrey Honig, bsd/os 2.0 - 4.0 should be added to the

Guido van Rossum 5ef8f0c3c7 According to Jeffrey Honig, bsd/os 4.0 should be added to the list. 1999-02-23 04:13:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c222ec28a5 Patch by Tadayoshi Funaba (with some changes) to be smarter about
guessing what happened when strftime() returns 0.  Is it buffer
overflow or was the result simply 0 bytes long?  (This happens for an
empty format string, or when the format string is a single %Z and the
timezone is unknown.)  if the buffer is at least 256 times as long as
the format, assume the latter.

Guido van Rossum 360eb9f278 We don't support leap seconds, so the seconds field of a time 9-tuple

Guido van Rossum 5bd69db9f0 In atoi(), don't use isxdigit() to test whether the last character
converted was a "digit" -- use isalnum().  This test is there only to
guard against "+" or "-" being interpreted as a valid int literal.
Reported by Takahiro Nakayama.

Fred Drake df5d50d889 Specify the sizes of H? relative to the normal font size as
percentages; using "large", "x-large" makes them too big for
some troublemakers.  ;-)

(Not specifying them at all causes some browsers to make them the same
size as normal text.  ;-(  )

Fred Drake 3d199af40d Bow to font-lock at the end of the docstring, since it throws stuff

with sys.path, or the addition could fail.
