SF bug #501591 : dir() doc is old
...
Bugfix candidate.
+ Updated dir() description to match actual 2.2 behavior.
+ Replaced the dir(sys) example with dir(struct), because the former
was way out of date and is bound to change frequently, while the
latter is stable.
+ Added a note cautioning that dir() is supplied primarily for
convenience at an interactive prompt (hoping to discourage its
use as the foundation of introspective code outside the core).

type.__module__ behavior.
This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this). Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right. Apologies if they're
not. This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer. It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output. It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.

Fix SF bug #479967 : Appearantly I broke something that made the index

insertion work. This fix makes things at least somewhat more explicit, and
adds a little sanity checking (and verbosity!) to

Re-word the intro slightly to avoid reader misunderstanding: strings are not
...
mutable! We do not want to shock anyone.
This closes SF bug #483805 .
Re-factor so that the description of the "access" keyword parameter is not
repeated in both the descriptions of mmap(). Also, only make sure the first
description of mmap() appears in the index. The the index link is followed,
the first is now used to locate the page on the screen; chances are really good
both will be visible. This avoids the problem that the index entry for the
second is selected and the first version is not visible, making the reader
consider that mmap() is not available on Windows.

Add a new environment in the Python docs markup: seealso*. This is similar
...
to seealso, but does not add the "See also:" header or put the content in a

Updated the description of \seeurl to better indicate when it should be used;
the old description was written before we had \seetitle.

A few small changes:
...
- Change PREFIX to PREFIXES, which contains a sequence of prefix strings.
This is useful since we want to look for both Py and PY.
- Wrap a long line.
- Collect struct tags as well as typedef names. Since we generally only
use one of the other, that improves coverage.
- Make the script executable on Unix.
This could use a better approach to determine if a symbol is documented,
and could easily avoid keeping the massive string in memory. That would
take time to actually write more code, though, so we'll bail on that
for now.

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
...
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Clarified a couple of issues for the startElement*() handlers:
...
- the attrs value may be re-used by the parser, so the implementation
cannot rely on owning the object.
- an element with no namespace encountered in namespace mode will have a URI
of None, not "" (startElementNS() only).
Fixed a couple of minor markup issues as well.
