Fred Drake f3aa0e0627 Revert the index stuff to work better with LaTeX2HTML. 1998-03-17 06:23:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 396a7cfb94 Reverting some the index stuff to use tools/newind.py again; this works
better with LaTeX2HTML.

Run pdflatex twice to generate the PDF files, even though LaTeX has already
been run a couple of times.  This ensures that font metrics for the final
run match those for the first run, and seesm to get (somewhat) better
outline results.

Lots of nits in both.

Fred Drake 4e7e11abe5 Use \withsubitem{} for indexing extra-module functions. 1998-03-12 06:46:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 371ecc0c1b Use \withsubitem{} for indexing functions from other modules. This fixes
things in the index.
1998-03-12 06:44:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee9f727c9 \withsubitem{}: New macro. Change indexsubitem temporarily for another
macro.  Intended usage:

		\withsubitem{(in module foo)}{\ttindex{myfunc()}}

	This allows indexing functions from other modules/class/whatnot
	without being dependent on the exact expansions of several macros
	internal to python.sty.  It's also easier to read in the source!

Some new "logical" macros that seem to be useful:

\regexp{}:  For regular expressions.  To make it easier to keep the appearance
	consistent.

\mimetype{}:  Don't use \code{}!

\envvar{}:  Environment variable.  This does some indexing as well.

\character{}:  Just a character we want to talk about in the text, but not
	a Python constant.

Fred Drake 4912beb9d8 Add copyright statement.
Add section on using A4 paper, since that's a common request.
1998-03-11 17:07:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 664b36ff59 *Sigh*
Add a -q option for "quiet" operation.  Nothing gets out (not even stderr,
since that's tossed to stdout for capture in the .how file).  It's a good
idea to use -l to get the log in case there are problems.  Maybe this should
be the default and add a --verbose option to get the stdout?  There's way
too much junk output.
1998-03-11 15:41:21 +00:00
Fred Drake dbc879e949 Allow the user to operate the script in debugging mode (-D), which just does
a "set -x".

Allow keeping a transcript, using -l, in $FILE.how.

Allow keeping of all the temp files created by the process, using -k.
1998-03-11 15:33:44 +00:00
Fred Drake c9f2c14d49 Somewhat more direct way of locating the file, using __FILE__.
Leave find_my_file() around for now, even though we're not using it at the
moment.

Fred Drake e2e904f303 Script to format HOWTO documents. Currently only tested on the "Using
Kerberos from Python" HOWTO (this will change shortly, I hope).

This needs to be run from it's location in the Doc/tools directory, and
not via a symlink.  I'll try and fix this in the future.

The help message needs work.

Fred Drake db34a1e2d8 Use the location of the initialization file to augment the style-specific

Fred Drake eff1f7622a clean_title(): Remove debugging prints. 1998-03-10 14:33:27 +00:00
Fred Drake ac77b79df6 clean_title(): Clean a little more carefully. Still does funny things with
underscores.  Might this be a fundamental PDF limitation?  Hm, could
	still be a TeX thing.
1998-03-10 14:02:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 45e564dd78 In the source dist., don't include:
- the .cvsignore files; these are only useful in the CVS tree

	- ref/ref.pdf

After compression, these last two account for about one-half MB, and half
the tarball.  They can be picked up from the appropriate format dist if
needed.

Don't generate the mod???.idx file if it wasn't requested with the new command

Fred Drake 34d6f5b0be Preliminary LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 support. Includes patch from Ross Moore to
get some funky quoting of ']' in \item[...] to work right without having to
do really ugly things to the documents themselves.

There are a lot of things relating to indexing that are commented out;
parts need to be examined and dealt with with respect to changes in
LaTeX2HTML internals.  I'll work with Ross to see what it takes to make
this sort of stuff reasonable.
1998-03-04 05:36:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 2da947af87 Comment out the attempt to get index-related stuff processed in the right
order.  LaTeX2HTML just doesn't do things the same way as LaTeX, and this

Simplify the generated HTML for \file{}.

For \samp{}, use "..." instead of `...'; many fonts make that look pretty
bad.   ;-(
1998-03-04 05:30:49 +00:00

Fred Drake 12577abe2e For each of the l2h??? targets, remove the sed hack that rips out a comma;
it no longer appears to be needed.

Fred Drake 49d9b620a1 Obsolete. 1998-03-03 22:03:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 6659c30b67 Convert LaTeX support to create a new class of documents. HTML generation
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).

This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.

Markup corrected, logical markup.
1998-02-27 15:19:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f56f2d646 When "declaring" a module using \*modindex{}, and * doesn't start with "ref",
set up the indexsubitem to "(in module #1)" automatically.  This reduces the
amount of markup needed in the module docs and, more importantly, makes it
o.k. to leave out in simple sections.  \setindexsubitem{} can still be used
to change or reset it.

directly since they're not used elsewhere.

Derive the name of the modules .idx from the jobname.

Some clean ups.

Fred Drake eb9b83104a Add support for hyperref package. This builds the PDF outline, makes the ToC
and index "hot", etc.

Updated a comment about fncychap.

Removed unused minitoc support; I'm not going to use it.  Something that makes
more sense with the Python lib ref can be done with reasonable effort, and can
wait a little while.
1998-02-23 21:37:27 +00:00

Fred Drake 5ad78f39e7 Changed way *.ind are forced to exist; the files are now reset to contain
an empty index instead of touched.  Note that for modindex.ind, this also
includes "\label{modindex}" so that the modindex.py script doesn't change
the set of labels in the document.

Be more consistent in use of $* in commands.

1998-02-19 21:40:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 505d80b39d Jeff Kunce writes (and he is right):
Also, I just ran across a [possible] minor glitch
in the library documentation for site.py. It says:

"For example, suppose sys.prefix and
sys.exec_prefix are set to `/usr/local'. The
Python 1.5 library is then installed in
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5'. Suppose this has a
subdirectory `/usr/local/python1.5/site-packages'
with three subsubdirectories, `foo', `bar' and
`spam'..."

I think it should be:
"...Suppose this has a subdirectory
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5/site-packages' with..."

Fred Drake 20e01966f5 Logical markup.
Several uses of "\^" could be simplified; this fixes part of the info

1998-02-19 15:09:35 +00:00
Fred Drake ea8006a865 \nodename{} must immediately follow \chapter{} to be handled correctly;
adding the \label{} broke that.

Fred Drake 802a202d0d Logical markup.
Changed {funcdesc} to {classdesc}.  This is a test case for {classdesc}.
1998-02-19 06:26:35 +00:00
Fred Drake fb5e54d497 Mostly LaTeX style cleanup.
Use \newenvironment{envname} instead of \newcommand{\foo} &
\newcommand{\endfoo} (or \let\endfoo=...!) wherever reasonable.

Where {*desc} environment helper functions are not needed outside a
single environment definition, inline them.

Ensure that \seemodule{} and \seetext{} are only available within the
{seealso} environment.

Added "()" to the index entries for {funcdesc} and {cfuncdesc} environments.

Added {classdesc} environment which looks like the {funcdesc} environment
but doesn't add the parens in the index entry.

Guido van Rossum a73033fcc2 Feature added by Bill van Melle: when no timezone is present, assume
local time -- that's better than failure.
1998-02-19 00:28:58 +00:00
Fred Drake ce0e175554 &do_cmd_url,
&do_cmd_email:  Adjust to use a font similar to that used in the printed
	representation.

&my_module_index_helper:  Change to be only used for defining markup.  Don't
	prepend an <A NAME=...> to the result; use the containing page as
	the module target for the index.

&ref_module_index_helper:  New function.  Used only for references to modules
	described elsewhere.  Generate the right target.

&init_myformat:  Set the anchor_mark to an empty string; this avoids junky
	"&#160;"'s in the text, which could really screw up vertical spacing
	when that's all that's in a paragraph.

&do_cmd_seemodule:  Insert markup to jump right to the referred-to module.
1998-02-18 22:45:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 026d9626df Consistent spelling: "time zone" -> "timezone".

Fred Drake dd94676865 Added libsymbol.tex, libtoken.tex to dependencies for the libref.
New targets:  ???-all, for each document.  This creates all formats of the
named document (DVI, HTML, PDF, PS).

l2hlib:  Added commands to translate node*.html to use the \label{} stuff,
	as supported by Jeremy's node2html.pl.  This gives us mostly
	bookmarkable nodes.

Fred Drake a219e7976f main(): Include a \label{modindex} in the output so latex won't let us re-use
the name elsewhere.  This is useful for the logical filenames project,
	since the "modindex" label is hardcoded into .latex2html-init.
1998-02-17 23:13:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 45a40930e7 &do_cmd_textohtmlmoduleindex: Get the modindex key added to the label->node

Added index entry for DES cipher.
1998-02-17 22:24:45 +00:00

Fred Drake 30d17825ac Add magic to make PDF generation use maximal compression. 1998-02-17 15:56:55 +00:00
Fred Drake ddae414cb5 Added all-formats target: use this to get both PDF and PS files; using the
"alternate" rules for PDF generation doesn't ensure the PS files get
generated since distiller isn't used.

Switch to the "alternate" rules for PDF generation; this is starting to make
more sense than the distiller-based rule, and requires only free software.
I'm also confident it's working well (meaning I paged through all four
pdflatex-generated PDF files).

Fred Drake e8b46132e2 Massive changes. Fewer warnings from the Python Library Reference. Still
messy, but the thing seems to be working without bombing completely today.
Formatting lib.texi with TeX doesn't seem to do too badly, either!

Info formatting isn't quite there; that might just have to disappear this
time.

Fred Drake 7154d382c3 Update indexsubitem for file attributes correctly. 1998-02-17 02:11:21 +00:00
Fred Drake a200faac55 \nodename{} must appear immediately after \section{} for the info conversion. 1998-02-17 02:10:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 06e1664c77 Indent {verbatim} environments like in the printed version. 1998-02-16 22:50:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 76183c0ed8 Move optional package inclusions to the top, to make them easier to find.
Code elsewhere in this file tests for the inclusion of the package and does
not need to be uncommented.  Comments explain what they do and how to
disable them.

Added support for the optional "fancyhdr" package.  If used, page footers
include chapter information on the left and section information on the right.

Both optional packages, "fancyhdr" and "times", are enabled by default.  We
may want to disable them before shipping, but I'm not completely convinced.
(How many installations format their own documentation?)

Fred Drake 75fc045bf5 Fixed formatting of the program name for crypt.
Added another index entry.

Fred Drake 2705e801d9 For the lists which describe the regular expression syntax, increase the
width available so we don't run into the left page margin.
1998-02-16 21:21:13 +00:00
Fred Drake b0f77d65db Use \version to get the current Python version number, where possible. This
can only be done in the running text, and not in {verbatim} environments.
1998-02-16 20:58:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 7506298dfb Mark up filename extensions consistently.
Logical markup.
1998-02-16 20:40:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 3b26eeddea Added rule to generate the PDF format using pdflatex. Commented out since
this is still experimental software.  See the comment.
1998-02-16 17:06:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d20ac36a9 Removed various "(New in 1.5a?!)" constructs. Other notes pertaining to

Fred Drake 4de05a90be Place C typedef for Py_complex after brief description, to be more consistent
with the other example of a structure description (struct _frozen).

Added index entries for the modules referenced in the document.
1998-02-16 14:25:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 53fb7723ee Added index enties for the Python built-in functions, where appropriate. 1998-02-16 06:23:20 +00:00
Fred Drake e058b4f124 Lots of nitty-gritty stuff:
Use \emph{} when referring to title of any of the Python manuals, like is
done in the other manuals.

In some places, use \emph{} or \dfn{} instead of ``...''.

Use \samp{} instead of \code{} when marking identifier prefixes.

Use logical markup wherever it made sense.

Fixed a bunch of typos.

In several places, use "---" instead of "--" to get the emdash.

Start sentences with capital letters and end them with periods, as needed.

"it's" --> "its" in many places:  "it's" it *always* a contraction of "it is",
and "its" should always be used for the possessive.

"don't" --> "doesn't"

"should discards any" --> "should discard any"

In C function descriptions, use \var{} to mark parameters in the running
text instead of \code{}.  This matches usage in the other manauls better,
and is more consistent with the formatting of the function signatures.
Lots of little changes to implement this.

Lots of fixups needed due to appearant heavy cut-&-paste in the orignal
document.

Mention that the exception objects may be either classes or strings,
depending on the use of -X; they were unequivocally stated to be strings
in the section "Standard Exceptions".

"mkvalue()" --> "Py_BuildValue()"

Description of PyNumber_Power() indicates that the third value is option,
but not how to indicate that it was omitted.  Clarified.

Explain the behavior of PyString_FromStringAndSize() if the buffer is NULL.

Explain the Py_complex structure a little (tell what it's used for) and use
a {verbatim} environment for the structure definition itself.

Fix explanation of PyFile_SoftSpace().

Update the example version string to 1.5.

Combined the sections on defining new object types.
1998-02-16 06:15:35 +00:00

place them elsewhere so they get the right capitalization.
1998-02-13 22:17:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 01dbb88831 Fix some markup so that the right characters are printed.
"EOF" --> "\EOF{}"
1998-02-13 22:13:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 4a1efb63a9 Capitalize subsection title. 1998-02-13 22:10:21 +00:00

Fred Drake a19bb9bbcf Capitalize first word in sentences, use periods at end. 1998-02-13 21:57:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 86b5dcec86 Change {datadesc} environments with empty descriptions to \dataline{}s; this
removes extra vertical space from the list of names, and makes the display
more similar to that used in the socket module, where several constants share
a description.
1998-02-13 21:55:21 +00:00
Fred Drake fc931ecf92 In description of sound_similar(), break up the markup for long
\code{} at each embedded space, so that the words will wrap.  This keeps
it from being too ugly.
1998-02-13 21:49:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 315b5d8a7f In description of __import__, second paragraph, break up the markup for long
\code{} at each embedded space, so that the words will wrap.  This keeps it
from running off the side of the page, and is only slightly weird.
1998-02-13 21:26:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 83bd081920 Minor stuff:
Explain what happens when a negative shift count is used (what exception).

Mark the title "Python Reference Manual" as \emph{}, for consistency.

"info" --> "information"

Tell more about the data attributes of file objects, using the {datadesc}
environment.

When refering the user to the language reference for information about
internal types, tell what internal types to expect information on.
1998-02-13 20:59:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 4c6896304b Fix weirdness with single-page table of contents, reported by Guido. 1998-02-13 16:58:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 2549249f79 &do_env_datadescni,
&do_env_funcdescni:  New functions.  These support the non-indexing variety
	of the {datadesc} and {funcdesc} environments.

There's still some flakiness with the new indexsubitem support, but that's
low priority.
1998-02-13 15:08:36 +00:00
Fred Drake fb74a463ad Add "Pretty Good Privacy" as well as "PGP" to the index. 1998-02-13 14:52:17 +00:00
Fred Drake c9c456ef69 In add_label_data() description, use "\samp{}" instead of "``\code{...}''"
to indicate the interpreted letters from the format string.
1998-02-13 14:48:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 7f6e2c45ec Use "\samp{...}" instead of "``\code{...}''" when showing markup fragments
in the running text.

For computed attribute and method names (where there's a \var{} part to
the name), use the non-indexing forms of \datadesc{} and \funcdesc{}.
This doesn't change the printed output, but removes 3 rejections from the
makeindex run and allows the LaTeX2HTML support to exclude these from the
index.
1998-02-13 14:38:23 +00:00
Fred Drake b441eb84d3 Use "\samp{...}" instead of "``\code{...}''" when showing markup fragments
in the running text.

For computed method names (where there's a \var{} part to the name), use
the non-indexing form of \funcdesc{}.  This doesn't change the printed
output, but removes 3 rejections from the makeindex run and allows the
LaTeX2HTML support to exclude these from the index.
1998-02-13 14:37:12 +00:00
Fred Drake aebc6f399e Two new environments: datadescni and funcdescni. These are similar to
datadesc and funcdesc, but don't add entries to the index.
1998-02-13 14:34:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 00dcfb2bc3 &get_indexsubitem: This now has a chance of working, thanks to:
&do_cmd_setindexsubitem:  New function.  Set the indexsubitem value from
	\setindexsubitem{(...)}.

&do_env_opcodedesc:  By default, don't index byte codes.

$INDEX_OPCODES:  New flag.  If true, index the byte codes.  Default is off.

Normalize indentation to 4 spaces everywhere.

Minor nits.
1998-02-13 07:21:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 8842e867af Remove \bcode / \ecode everywhere.
Make all the indentations in {verbatim} environments have column 0 of the
listing in column 0 of the file.

Remove pagenumbering / pagestyle cruft.

Use more logical and less physical markup.
1998-02-13 07:16:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 1e11a5c117 Remove \bcode / \ecode everywhere.
Make all the indentations in {verbatim} environments have column 0 of the
listing in column 0 of the file.

Remove pagenumbering / pagestyle cruft.
1998-02-13 07:11:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 2a4646c660 Remove obsolete pagenumbering / pagestyle cruft. 1998-02-13 07:08:56 +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.
1998-02-13 06:58:54 +00:00
Fred Drake dc8af0acc1 Lots of stuff:
Handle most (all?) of the page style / numbering magic here so the documents
don't have to do it individually.

Revise the \bcode / \ecode stuff so that the {verbatim} environment handles
it right directly.  \bcode / \ecode will be completely removed from all files
(to be checked in momentarily).

Have the {verbatim} environment get the samples indented a bit; this
appearantly had been attempted in the old code, but didn't work because
paragraphs weren't indented.

Make all headers, from chapters on down to subparagraphs, have sans-serif
titles.

\setindexsubitem{}:  New macro.  Replaces \renewcommand{\indexsubitem{}(...)}
	everywhere.  This allows LaTeX2HTML to be made to work correctly for
	this.  That was near impossible with the old mechanisms.

For all {*desc} environments, make the name of the described thing bold as
well as monospaced.

{opcodedesc} environment:  Don't index the byte code names; that doesn't seem
	terribly useful, and there are a lot of them.

\var{}:  More magic to make sure that the size is right even if embedded in
	\file{} or some other macro that uses the sans-serif font in running
	text.

\bfcode{}:  New macro.  Makes the font \code{} and bold.  (Was unreasonable
	using old LaTeX 2.09.)

\file{}:  Adjust the size of the sans-serif font a little.

\email{}, \url{},  Make these use the same font as \file{}, but not the
	surrounding single-quotes.

Update many comments.

Lots of minor nits and a little cleanliness.
1998-02-13 06:48:05 +00:00
Fred Drake cffaebb621 parse_line(): Strip whitespace from the module name.
main():  Include a comma between the module name and page number, to make
	 the generated index more like the "standard" generated index.
1998-02-13 05:11:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 6eab2fb0f1 Clean up some of the definitions related to info generation. 1998-02-13 03:23:33 +00:00
Fred Drake e5bc49785c "ASCII" --> "\ASCII{}" 1998-02-12 23:36:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 04cf4dcf58 Added tarpdf target.
Don't remove *.texi & *.info for clean; only for clobber.

Don't remake tarballs if not needed (PDF & PS only).  HTML tarball is still
painful.
1998-02-12 22:33:50 +00:00

In IMPORT_NAME description:  "is not affect:" --> "is not affected:"
1998-02-12 03:32:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a72a7e344 Use new \authoraddress{}; author's name and address are now separate.
Use new \release{}; this is now separate from \date{}.

Use \email{} instead of \code{} for email addresses.
1998-02-12 03:16:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 71c1ef34bf Remove second index entry for UserList. 1998-02-12 03:10:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 06f169bb7f \rfcindex{}: Removed; no longer needed.
\file{}:  Use a sans-serif font for the filename itself.

Use the fncychap.sty package for fancy chapter headings.

Replace the \maketitle command with our own format.  This is new, but it
looks a lot better than the old one.

Use \renewcommand instead of \def when extending or overriding standard LaTeX
commands.  This makes it more LaTeX-like.

Fred Drake 8d486b1779 In the appendix, all sections were marked as subsections, and so had section
numbers "A.0.#".  Fixed.

&make_str_index_entry:  Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT.

&make_mod_index_entry:  Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT.
1998-02-10 22:11:07 +00:00

Fred Drake dd244a0b9e Script to fix up the Library Reference index so it's less ugly. The docstring:
"""Combine similar index entries into an entry and subentries.

For example:

  \item {foobar} (in module flotz), 23
  \item {foobar} (in module whackit), 4323

becomes

  \item {foobar}
    \subitem in module flotz, 23
    \subitem in module whackit, 4323

Note that an item which matches the format of a collapsable item but which
isn't part of a group of similar items is not modified.
"""

This results in a much more readable index, with less repitition of text;
especially for common method names.

Fred Drake 1624a507e6 Oops, missed a \POSIX{} in an index entry. 1998-02-09 22:12:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 88223904c8 Add some index entries; switch to logical markup. 1998-02-09 20:52:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 65b32f7f74 Consistently use \POSIX{} to denote POSIX. There were at least two different
ways to do it previously (not counting module names).

changes.
1998-02-09 19:16:20 +00:00
Fred Drake b16166e56f Add macros to insert RFC references much like the \manpage{} macro. Also a
macro to insert an RFC index reference.

(RFC references were formatted three different ways.)

Fred Drake b37a395231 \itembreak, \itemjoin: Remove unused macros.
\idxcode{}:  New macro; used to mark things that would be \code{} for entry
	into the index.  This allows easily switching things around for the
	font used in the index.  (O'Reilly seems to keep it all plain roman
	in the index.  Looks reasonable in the Python documentation as well.)

\*index{}:  Use \idxcode{} instead of {\codefont{}}.
1998-02-06 22:52:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 31c4ed75fc Remove commented-out \itembreak. 1998-02-06 22:26:04 +00:00
Fred Drake c660233cfb Update two of the \indexsubitem values to use singular rather than plural form
of "variable": each individual variable should be identified as a single

1998-02-04 19:54:40 +00:00
Fred Drake b19274704f \modindex{}: New macro; index module without declaring it "built-in" or

 parser.syntax_error(msg)
instead of
 parser.syntax_error(lineno, msg)

This new version also has some code to deal with the <?xml?> and
<!DOCTYPE> tags at the start of an XML document.
The documentation has been updated, and a small test module has been
created.
1998-01-29 14:55:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7570669a08 Add a note explaining that multiplying a sequence with a negative
number is the same as multiplying it with zero, and yields an empty
sequence.
1998-01-27 19:09:43 +00:00
Fred Drake c6c921a4de Py_AtExit(): Added brief note about the constraint on cleanup functions not
calling the Python API.
1998-01-26 19:16:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 16f88454f1 Use \url{} to mark a URL. 1998-01-22 20:47:26 +00:00
Fred Drake ff3f0d0a5c Use \url{} to mark URLs, \email{} to mark an email address. 1998-01-22 20:45:31 +00:00
Fred Drake ca6567fb3f Use \url{} to mark URLs. 1998-01-22 20:44:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 301ad2ee63 Fixed indexing of {datadesc} environments.
Removed " (byte code instruction)" from the output of the {opcodedesc}
environment; this should only appear in the index (which it now does).

Removed some really old cruft related to otherwise removed debugging code.
(I *think* assignments to $* set & clear auto-flush of <STDOUT>, but don't
really remember.  Removing them seems to not change anything!)
1998-01-22 18:14:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f02628dce \seemodule{}: Use logical markup for the module name, to ensure it picks up
any changes introduced there.  Also ensure a little more space between
	the module name and the parenthesized comment.
1998-01-22 17:43:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 7c418ed89c Added descriptions for log() and log10().
Clarified that floor() and ceil() return reals.  Same for the integer part
returned by modf().

Some markup consistency changes.
1998-01-22 17:37:50 +00:00
Fred Drake bceaf35a63 Add support for the new macros, including hyperlink generation for \url{}. 1998-01-22 16:13:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ed79783bb2 Converted to use new macros. This example demonstrate \method{} and, more
importantly, \url{}.
1998-01-22 16:11:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 55f4492859 Converted to use semantic markup. This is an example of how many of the new
constructs should be used.
1998-01-22 15:56:41 +00:00
Fred Drake dd28d57fd0 Revised new macros after discussion with Guido: Always use full names of
semantic concepts.

Added two new ones (not discussed with Guido:

\constant{}:  Markup for constants defined in Python modules.

\cfunction{}:  Markup for C functions; these should probably be distinguished
	by font, but are not at this time (since they're typically \code{} at
	this point).
1998-01-22 15:55:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f35495563 Add entry for copy_reg module. 1998-01-21 05:04:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 6eb9f10063 Removed entry for copy_reg module. 1998-01-21 05:00:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 251fed3e56 $(LIBFILES): Added libcopyreg.tex. 1998-01-21 04:59:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 2d754437d4 Add entry for copy_reg module. 1998-01-21 04:58:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 1abf0df5b4 Simple documentation of the copy_reg module.
Guido, you should probably look at this.  The pickle documentation is out of
date; I don't see anything about the __reduce__() stuff or the
__safe_for_unpickling__ attribute.
1998-01-21 04:58:10 +00:00
Fred Drake d1cc9c2b92 Update comment about relative URL internet draft to reflect current RFC status;
index references the appropriate RFCs.

Consistency:  Always use trailing "()" on function names in running text.
1998-01-21 04:55:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 61b0452626 Added a bunch of "concept" index entries.
Use trailing "()" on function names in running text.
1998-01-20 05:52:23 +00:00
Fred Drake a46f84d293 Added index entry and \label{} for exceptions module. This isn't in the
normal modules portion of the manual, but that's the basic effect of this
section with the 1.5 change in exception support.
1998-01-20 05:26:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 73a973bf8d Always mark variables in the "Notes" following a table the same way as in the
tables:  \var{}

Add a couple of index entries to the File Objects section.
1998-01-20 05:20:39 +00:00
Fred Drake cbe50f4829 Removed bogus index entry for the type() built-in.
Marked title of the Python Reference Manual as \emph{}, like other Python
manual titles.
1998-01-20 05:12:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 311c19688d Proposed new macros: see comments. These are not yet used.
These are intended to support semantic markup.  There are a number
	of places in the documentation where the exact meaning of an
	indentifier marked \code{} in the running text is ambiguous (could
	be a module or a class, a function or a method, etc.).  These are
	intended to clarify the intent of the identifier for processing
	applications and more intelligent style processing.
1998-01-20 05:07:19 +00:00
Fred Drake cb42f7c295 Consistency: "{\tt ...}" ==> "\code{...}" 1998-01-20 04:55:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 9eb5e5097e Consistency: "{\it ...}" ==> "\emph{...}" 1998-01-20 04:54:23 +00:00
Fred Drake c520b695fe The soundex module is built-in, not standard.
"--" ==> "---"
1998-01-20 04:45:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ca12b9df7b Consistency: {\it ...} ==> \emph{...} 1998-01-20 04:43:29 +00:00
Fred Drake dd17d1ce62 ni is a standard module, not a built-in module. The only other reference to
it already got it right.
1998-01-20 04:40:41 +00:00
Fred Drake bac354cd80 Consistency: (Yes, I know this section is not formatted by default, and
isn't likely to be of much interest these days....)

{\tt ...} ==> \code{...}

Added \label{module-blat} for the two supporting modules.

Added index entries for referred-to modules.
1998-01-20 04:32:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 79a6a9e882 Removed a confusing note about coercions and __r*__ operators. 1998-01-19 23:16:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 46503922a0 Various updates to the effect that the group argument is always optional.
Also documented that groups() now always returns a tuple.
1998-01-19 23:14:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7d4ecb8785 Add note about dropping latex 2.09 compatibility. 1998-01-19 23:10:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 8095ebfc4a Consistency: Replaced 4 {\it ...} with \emph{...}. 1998-01-19 04:02:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 94e8f690dd Consistency: Replaced one {\tt ...} with \code{...}. 1998-01-19 02:55:11 +00:00
Fred Drake b6ce6427e8 Consistency: In two places, change {\it ...} to \emph{...}. 1998-01-19 02:51:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 53396f66c1 Consistency: In two \section{} headers, change {\tt ...} to \sectcode{...}. 1998-01-19 02:48:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 9e24309bb5 \funcitem{}, \dataitem{}, \excitem{}: Removed obsolete macros; there are no
longer used anywhere.  Use the {*desc} environments instead.

\var{}:  Ensure that the argument is always set in roman italic, in case an
	 alternate font is being used for code.  These keeps the result of
	 \var{} consistent.

Some minor changes to allow easier exploration of alternate fonts for code in
the running text.  Haven't changed the selected font; I haven't found one that
has everything required!  (The best non-monospaced font so far was missing
the <, >, and | characters, or at least had them at the wrong locations.  It
also allowed confusion between upper-case I and lower-case L.)
1998-01-18 05:09:54 +00:00
Fred Drake b660b63edf Use \emph{} for all references to the other documents, not just some of them. 1998-01-16 16:34:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 5081b227f1 Ouch: "accounces" ==> "announces"
(In description of AbstractWriter class.)
1998-01-15 05:49:00 +00:00
Fred Drake af8a015c93 Consistency: "{\bf ...}" ==> "\strong{...}"
"{\em ...}" ==> "\emph{...}"

	      Not at all sure what to do with "{\rm ...}".
	      Leaving it for now.
1998-01-14 14:51:31 +00:00
Fred Drake b215137224 Added the standard \label{module-*} for the two supporting modules. 1998-01-14 05:47:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 8ac34c2928 Consistency: "Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"
Always include the comma *inside* the \optional{} markup!
1998-01-13 22:41:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 737e73ec3d Augment \tableofcontents to do the right thing. 1998-01-13 22:40:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 4d4f9e726a Removed \mytableofcontents; just use \tableofcontents. 1998-01-13 22:25:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 3e9ce54eff Removed one hack! 1998-01-13 22:23:30 +00:00
Fred Drake a809064166 Consistency: "Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}" 1998-01-13 19:10:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 6862b46b70 Consistency: "unix" ==> "\UNIX{}" 1998-01-13 19:03:36 +00:00
Fred Drake c9dc5151b6 Consistency: "unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"
Added \label{} for referring to the module.
1998-01-13 19:01:57 +00:00
Fred Drake efc1e0f43b Consistency:
"Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"
1998-01-13 19:00:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f20592c3e Consistency:
"Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"

"C" ==> "\C{}"

"C++" ==> "\Cpp{}"
1998-01-13 18:56:38 +00:00
Fred Drake b0a78738ea Consistency:
"Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"

"C" ==> "\C{}"

"C++" ==> "\Cpp{}"
1998-01-13 18:51:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 18f9f539f2 Removed obsolete \kwindex{} call.
Added "user configuration file", ".pythonrc.py file" to the index.

Made reference to site module a {seealso} environment.
1998-01-13 18:45:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 2b67bee8e1 Added "module search path" to the index. 1998-01-13 18:35:51 +00:00
Fred Drake cf75754357 Removed obsolete \kwindex{} calls.
Added "module search path" to the index.

"Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"
1998-01-13 18:34:40 +00:00
Fred Drake bc5062f664 \kwindex{}: Removed obsolete macro. 1998-01-13 18:31:39 +00:00
Fred Drake b5dac4e02e &do_cmd_kwindex: Removed obsolete function. 1998-01-13 18:30:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 8362d005cf Added command at end to use times fonts; commented out. Instructions to use
times are there as well.

Doing it here means the switch only affects one file and gets everything
rebuilt as needed.
1998-01-13 17:29:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 95810e4d18 Removed tarps2, tardvi targets based on comments from Guido.
Added -9 option to gzip.  This doesn't save much space, but it's "free" and
appreaciated by those with slow modems.  (With these tarballs, that means
"those with modems"...!)

Remove the two tarballs in the clean target.
1998-01-13 17:18:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 657cb148c3 After discussion with Guido, agreed to only support double-sided PostScript,
so we'll not need this shell whackery after all.
1998-01-13 16:57:13 +00:00
Fred Drake dca8792b52 Added openright option the the \documentclass{} for each of the manuals. 1998-01-13 16:53:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 33d05b9d88 Added targets:
tarps - one-sided PostScript
  tarps2 - two-sided PostScript, with ref.ps added as-is.
  tardvi - yes, some people want the .dvi files

  all-ps2 - Create the .ps files, but make sure the LaTeX openright option
	    is used in the \documentclass.
1998-01-13 16:33:09 +00:00
Fred Drake bc3b1c6fce Script to add & remove LaTeX \documentclass options. Run "./texoption.sh"
for usage information.
1998-01-13 16:29:08 +00:00
Fred Drake ab0b65d0c9 &make_mod_index_entry: Wrap a long comment, store the additional data needed
to create a module index in the HTML version.
1998-01-13 04:05:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 9b6f1d24f9 Override several functions from the stock latex2html to support the module
index.  It works, it's ugly, and would probably have to be completely redone
if we changed latex2html versions.  See the comments.  ;-(

On the other hand, it works.  ;-)

(Wait for myformat.perl checkin as well.)
1998-01-13 04:03:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 1af9e79708 Added support for \funcline{} and \dataline{}.
For all generated cases of <strong>...</strong> (from this module), change to
<b>...</b>.  This, from me?  This is entirely to reduce the size of the
generated markup, which is more of an issue than semantics here.  Since
<strong> isn't very meaningful anyway, this should be good.
1998-01-12 23:15:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 023f87fbf8 Lots of minor markup nits, all consistency related.
Consistently use trailing "()" on function / method names.

Wrapped some long lines.
1998-01-12 19:16:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 97546399c7 Document maxsplit arg for split(), with incompatibility note about 1.5
release bug.

Document groups() changed behaviour (now always returns tuple).
1998-01-12 18:58:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 054f8fd12c Wrapped some long lines.
Added trailing "()" for function and method names.

Added index entries for referenced modules.
1998-01-12 18:28:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 74947ac473 Modify command descriptions to use \optional{} instead of ad-hoc markup.
There are still weirdnesses, but less of them.
1998-01-12 15:38:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 6c886a8db1 \optional{}: Removed leading word space, allowing more flexibility.
{seealso} environment:  Always start a new paragraph after the "See Also:"
	line; this ensures that formatting is consistent for each subsequent
	\see*{} item.
1998-01-12 14:44:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2c45a8197 Sigh. Apply a similar patch to the *other* occurrence of [^...]. 1998-01-12 05:49:05 +00:00
Fred Drake fd49a964bc Follow current recommended practice in an example: Use isinstance() to
perform a type test instead of type(x) == types.FoobarType.  In example
for type().
1998-01-11 21:15:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 48022db400 "Unix" --> "\UNIX{}"
Added index references to referred-to modules.

Added seealso section pointing to the glob module.

Removed description of translate().
1998-01-11 19:06:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 0cf785a7a7 Grammatical nit. 1998-01-09 22:37:52 +00:00
Fred Drake cf7e830869 Add module reference for cPickle to index.
Consistency:  Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.

Consistency:  Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.

Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP".  I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.
1998-01-09 22:36:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 12d9da5827 Use \file{} instead of \code{} or ``\code{}'' to mark file & directory names
& name parts.
1998-01-09 22:30:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d0ff317bc Simplify markup. 1998-01-09 22:27:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 57b935d0d6 The resource module has been documented; remove from list. 1998-01-09 22:25:10 +00:00
Fred Drake bbe6068de0 Added \label{} to allow module references.
Added some seealso sections.
1998-01-09 22:24:14 +00:00
Fred Drake aa5dba026a Add index entry for reference to the math module. 1998-01-09 21:30:03 +00:00
Fred Drake d327a8dddf Typographical nits: Always set parameter names in \var{} in the running text. 1998-01-09 21:26:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 6b3ed7f581 Markup consistency in the mapping object interface description. 1998-01-09 20:36:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 0bf6845450 Fix previous nit to really do the right thing. 1998-01-09 16:26:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 60a3d2788e Consistency: Always use lower-case markup; one tag was still given in
uppercase.  (Makes it easier to see what markup is generated by the
	Python manual support and what is generated by standard latex2html.)
1998-01-09 14:39:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 0fd8268189 Revise prologue and frontmatter to use latex2e (not in 2.09 compatibility
mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.

Change "C" to "\C{}" and "\code{NULL}" to "\NULL{}" everywhere for consistency
and control.

Started a description of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords().
1998-01-09 05:39:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 1f8449af4e Revise prologue and frontmatter to use latex2e (not in 2.09 compatibility
mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.
1998-01-09 05:36:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 031ad4b2a0 \mytableofcontents New macro. Wrapper around \tableofcontents that
does the right thing if the openright option is given.  Allows a
	lot of crud to be removed from the document files' frontmatter
	sections.

\endabstract		Extend standard macro.  (Called as \end{abstract}.)
	Does the right thing if the openright option is given.

\optional		Adjust to get the brackets right under latex2e.
1998-01-09 05:34:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 46fbd7f4a0 Nit. 1998-01-09 05:22:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 3c3d7ce7fe For consistency, always use a trailing "()" on function names in the running
text.

Add one index entry.
1998-01-08 04:00:30 +00:00
Fred Drake fcda560e81 Fix a typo (the word "a" was spelled "c"!).
Added index entries & \label{} constructs.
1998-01-07 22:05:25 +00:00
Fred Drake c9a32ab26b Normalize some markup.
Use \file{} instead of \code{} for a directory name (Tools/freeze).

Consistently use "()" at the end of a function name in running text.
1998-01-07 18:57:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 6279fccf4c Fixed up index entries.
Adjusted one formatting problem (long \code{} in running text).
1998-01-07 13:23:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 1566a1d72c Added index entry for the protocol.
Fixed typo (extra char in the word "character").

Minor nits.
1998-01-07 13:17:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 15bac5d6e4 Added index items for the RFC and the protocol itself. 1998-01-07 13:13:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 799484399d Fixed index entries to be more consistent. 1998-01-07 03:47:10 +00:00
Fred Drake c4586387f6 In description of \D, revise markup so that the caret shows up in the HTML
version as well as the dvi form.  Without the fix, it showed up as an extra
zero character.

Bug reported by Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk>.
1998-01-06 15:46:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 85a5c52752 Descriptions for PyRun_String(), PyRun_File(), and PyRun_CompileString() all
gave the return type as part of the function field and used an empty return
type field.  Fixed.

Function name field for PyLong_FromString() included an asterisk at the
beginning of the function name field; removed.
1998-01-02 03:24:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 34252f99d6 lib.dvi target: Added commands to generate the modules index. 1998-01-02 03:01:47 +00:00
Fred Drake c1ce320a4f Script to convert module index data to module index. 1998-01-02 03:00:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 0b1337d674 Add module index before the general index. 1998-01-02 02:59:09 +00:00
Fred Drake da941ef27c Added support for storing information to build a module index.
Enhance the "theindex" environment to add an entry to the table of contents.
1998-01-02 02:57:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 875c807c92 In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals;
"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html
output (the font was right).  Changed to "\code{{\e}(}" variation, which
fixes both.  Breaks the .texi file generation again.  Oh well.
1998-01-02 02:50:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3884e7edf9 Apply fixps.py to allow A4 paper printing. 1997-12-30 23:49:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1f35977bfd Added BaseHTTPServer to table of contents for chapter. 1997-12-30 23:42:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eb0f066fb8 Correct small nits reported by Rob Hooft. 1997-12-30 20:38:16 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ccd25d10c4 Final version for 1.5; two tiny corrections. 1997-12-30 18:35:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5793039dce Clarify that __getinitargs__ is called at pickle time! 1997-12-30 17:44:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4f80b65aa6 Added "docs" for Pareto and Weibull distributions. 1997-12-30 17:38:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 1c8b9e4769 Clean out *.texi and *.info* as well for "make clean". 1997-12-30 04:57:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7779619524 Add obsolescence note. 1997-12-30 04:54:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b1b8f23903 Add URL of Andrew Kuchling's nifty re conversion page... 1997-12-30 04:53:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8e94489882 Add a note that up to 1.4, translate() produced Emacs style syntax; in
1.5, it produces Perl style syntax.  Also change "Python's regular
expressions" into plain "regular expression" in the intro.
1997-12-30 04:43:36 +00:00
Fred Drake e33e903461 Updated release date to match boilerplate.tex.
Removed implied future availability of an info/texi version of the other
manuals (the word "yet").

Guido, you might want to check this file to see if any other changes are
required.
1997-12-30 04:42:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5de1eb9b84 Added ConfigParser.py to list of undocumented miscellaneous useful utilities. 1997-12-30 04:41:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dccc298e3d Took out some disclaiming text (even from the title!). Rewritten
abstract.  Alas, I didn't get to do anything else before the release
:-(
1997-12-30 04:40:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5b8a523538 A whole bunch of typos fixed by Andrew Kuchling.
Added a warning about the incompleteness to the front.
Added a reminder about CObject to the back.
1997-12-30 04:38:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5b943ca1a9 Set the release date for 1.5 (final). 1997-12-30 04:29:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 13704a8928 Added .PHONY annotation for lib.info target; the real target is
python-lib.info.  The annotation is needed to prevent at least GNU make from
building a second set of info files with the lib.info base name.
1997-12-29 22:04:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e66e9c5562 Remove more commented-out text that is no longer needed. 1997-12-29 21:43:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29d3b9368c Remove the commented-out warning at the top. It shouldn't be there
for the 1.5 release version of the file.
1997-12-29 21:42:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 43c9350f7a Getting uglier. But it doesn't completely bomb except for some table stuff.
I'll get to it when I can.
1997-12-29 21:40:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 78f8e98232 Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by
the info generation phases.  Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call.  It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 6810a29c64 Ignore generated info files. 1997-12-29 21:37:21 +00:00

Fred Drake 588f38ec2a Ignore another intermediate file from the info generation. 1997-12-29 20:03:46 +00:00
Fred Drake d7feffdd5f Reduce warning count from partparse.py. 1997-12-29 20:02:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9cb64803aa Added Greg Stein's docs for BaseHTTPServer.py.
Moved docs for "re" to before docs for "regex".
1997-12-29 20:01:55 +00:00
Fred Drake b0744c5a28 Make "{" and "}" in code sample visible instead of a group (it's supposed to
be a dictionary...).
1997-12-29 19:59:38 +00:00
Fred Drake bef9b0b039 Added missing "\" to "\var{address}, var{length}" in buffer_info() description. 1997-12-29 19:33:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 6884e3b94b Reduce warning count from partparse.py. 1997-12-29 19:09:37 +00:00
Fred Drake c416445d7e Use tableii environment for the table instead of tabular. This makes it
consistent with other 2-column tables in the Python documentation.
1997-12-29 19:02:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 671fe9dd31 Reduce warning count from partparse.py. 1997-12-29 18:53:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a3e672b574 Nit adjustments to remove warnings when processed with partparse.py. 1997-12-29 18:21:37 +00:00
Fred Drake f0867315e9 Normalized the word "Unix" to "\UNIX{}".
Changed "{\tt crypt}" to "\sectcode{crypt}" in section heading.
1997-12-29 17:31:22 +00:00
Fred Drake a4541af0ba A bunch of minor stuff.
Lots of support for new macros defined in myformat.sty; including the new
indexing macros, seealso environment & friends, and the byte code instruction
support.
1997-12-29 17:19:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 05dd3c09ab Added back info generation. Still buggy in the final phase (makeinfo run).
Does not conflict with any other targets.
1997-12-29 17:17:54 +00:00
Fred Drake cc97454987 Added missing "\" to "var{P}.\var{M}" in load_module() description. 1997-12-29 17:16:24 +00:00
Fred Drake f3e6df1e2d Remove unneeded "{}" that confused makeinfo. 1997-12-29 17:11:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ccaaf1a08 Change name of temporary file to avoid possible filesystem issues; matches
similar renaming of the @buildno file elsewhere in the Python tree.
1997-12-29 16:58:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 1656d17c42 Changed all \verb\...\ markup to either \code{...} or \samp{...}. 1997-12-29 16:55:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 2cd0b9b1ba Removed "-*-texinfo-*-" from first line; this can cause emacs/xemacs to stop
and ask the user for permission to set buffer-local variables depending on
the user's configuration.  Not really needed since this doesn't get edited
often.

Bumped the version number to 1.5; date still needs to be set.
1997-12-29 16:54:11 +00:00
Fred Drake f9951818a6 Normalized the \seetext markup to match the only other instance: should be
"\seetext{...}" instead of "\seetext ...".
1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 45c9df6636 Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is
rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee358529e do_env_tableii(), do_env_tableiii(): Align the table in the center, just
like LaTeX does.  There's no need to diverge on this.
1997-12-28 03:41:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dd79bd3539 Checking in fixed PS, with A4 capability. 1997-12-24 18:32:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b9973d9060 Script to edit one line in the PS to allow A4 printing. 1997-12-24 18:31:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 7f96291ee2 Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to
two-column tables.  This improves the rendering of the HTML version on
(at least) some browsers.
1997-12-23 04:21:20 +00:00
Fred Drake d665e8b5b0 Removed unnecessary \small{} block; latex2html got it wrong and its no
longer needed for printed output.
1997-12-23 04:10:35 +00:00
Fred Drake d21759ba47 Removed unnecessary \small{} block; latex2html got it wrong and its no
longer needed for printed output.
1997-12-23 04:03:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0148bbf966 AMK's latest 1997-12-22 22:41:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 9597daf220 do_env_tableii(), do_cmd_lineii(),
do_env_tableiii(), do_cmd_lineiii():  New functions to handle tableii and
	tableiii environments.

Small changes to not add a superfluous space between a function name and the
comma in the index.
1997-12-22 22:37:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e903aab833 Replace unprotected tilders by \~ -- an unprotected tilde is a
non-breaking space!
1997-12-18 16:28:56 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c6ef83f4 Change {\em ...} to \emph{...}; this seems to be the developing preference
throughout the manuals, and seems easier to read.
1997-12-18 15:56:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 616b23b2e4 img_tag(), top_navigation_panel(): Generate markup the same case as other
functions in this file.

this file.
1997-12-18 14:14:16 +00:00

for all three modules described here.

Added a \label{} for each of the two modules missing it.
1997-12-17 14:12:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a47bce54a6 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M".

Fixed one minor grammatical nit:  use plural pronoun to refer to a pair of
referents.

Include "()" when naming functions in the text.
1997-12-17 14:11:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 9c483191d6 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M". 1997-12-17 14:08:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 2303d31cc0 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M".

for both modules documented here.
1997-12-17 14:01:31 +00:00

Minor grammatical nit.
1997-12-17 13:51:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 045c7fc9b9 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M".
Remove the leading comment declaring this to be a template for module
documentation.
1997-12-17 13:47:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 6f070108df Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M"
for both modules documented here.
1997-12-17 13:45:50 +00:00
Fred Drake dccd9dbf52 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M"
for both built-in and standard modules.  They were different.
1997-12-17 13:44:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 819b789f36 gen_index_id(): New function. Construct an index key such that the sort
is stable and the form is only defined in one place, since we do
	some fancy footwork with the keys to separate the defining instance
	of a module reference from other references in the HTML index.

make_index_entry():  Override the standard definition to use get_index_id().

make_str_index_entry():  Moved to myformat.perl; only needed there.

index_key_eq():  Override the standard definition.  Add key transforms to
	remove extra junk from the end of the keys; it was only there to
	maintain ordering.

clean_key():  Remove key transform no longer needed at this stage, because
	keeping it makes the sort unstable.

add_idx():  Add key transforms to undo the mess we do to separate a module's
	defining and reference entries.  Don't make the text bold.
1997-12-17 03:08:27 +00:00

my_module_index_helper():  Do the actual work for \*modindex{}, including
	both the defining and reference forms.

make_str_index_entry():  Moved from .latex2html-init; it's really specific
	to the presentation.
1997-12-17 02:59:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e4eb2231fd AMK's latest 1997-12-17 00:23:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 72df9bcba2 do_cmd_refbimodindex(), do_cmd_refstmodindex(): New functions, handle the
reference form of \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{}.

1997-12-16 21:13:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ca9033062 Index the RFC822 reference (some other RFC references were alreaddy indexed).
Add index reference to mailbox module; also remove comment that it's
undocumented (it has been).
1997-12-16 15:19:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e0799817e The \indexsubitem definition for the actual exceptions did not actually
change the \indexsubitem value; fixed.
1997-12-16 14:54:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d2f7d414d Oops, ".pythonrc.py" should *always* be marked with \file{}; one occurrance
escaped with \var{}.
1997-12-16 14:43:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 5493205ba4 Module names should be in \code{}.
Added index reference to site module.
1997-12-16 14:41:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 0514ce126a Descriptions for delitem(), __delitem__(): These delete a value, not set it.
Lots of little nits:  parameter names in text should be \var{}, etc.
1997-12-16 14:29:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f496cc5b1 Fixed index module reference. 1997-12-16 04:08:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 90f2e5e202 Added a named target for referencing. 1997-12-16 04:06:33 +00:00
Fred Drake bfc28bcfdf Used a named target to form the reference to the Built-in Functions section. 1997-12-16 04:06:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 6d2bdb682d Fixed index module reference.
Changed references to regex/regsub modules to point to re.
1997-12-16 04:04:25 +00:00

Made references to files use \file{} instead of \code{}.
1997-12-15 22:23:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 356818eccb Fixed index references to modules. 1997-12-15 22:20:33 +00:00

Added new index entry for mimetools module.
1997-12-15 22:13:50 +00:00
Fred Drake a51f5a48e5 Fixed index references to modules. 1997-12-15 22:09:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 4af1814858 \refmodindex{}: New macro, used to make an index reference to a module which
is neither standard nor built-in.  (Used for sitecustomize entry.)
1997-12-15 22:08:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 9ab2b2ec5b Fixed index references to modules.
Placed references closer to usage.
1997-12-15 21:59:33 +00:00

to the stat module.
1997-12-15 21:42:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a528bd10d Added some module references to the index. 1997-12-15 21:40:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 207e57b617 Added definitions of \refbimodindex{} and \refstmodindex{}, which should be
used to add index references for built-in and standard modules, respectively.

Modified \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} to make the page number bold, to
allow the defining instance of a module to stand out in the index.

Check-ins which fix improper use of \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} will be
made as fixes are applied.  Misc. indexing updates will occur as a side
effect in some cases.
1997-12-15 21:37:45 +00:00
Fred Drake d9dbfbd33c At the top, made it clear that the \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} are only
used for the defining entry for the module, not every index reference.
1997-12-15 21:20:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c0cc6351e5 regex -> re 1997-12-15 17:53:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 095f35ad60 Changed \indexsubitem from ({\tt HTMLParser} method) to just
(HTMLParser method).

This makes it more consistent with other modules.  All three *mllib modules
need this change.
1997-12-12 05:34:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 1247ceab94 Changed \indexsubitem from ({\tt SGMLParser} method) to just
(SGMLParser method).

This makes it more consistent with other modules.  All three *mllib modules
need this change.
1997-12-12 05:33:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 0add4c120d Changed \indexsubitem from ({\tt XMLParser} method) to just (XMLParser method).
This makes it more consistent with other modules.  All three *mllib modules
need this change.
1997-12-12 05:32:31 +00:00
Fred Drake d56924258a add_idx(): Don't add unnecessary markup around the little markers stuck in the
index to cross-references; an image doesn't benefit by being bold!
1997-12-11 21:46:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 48d0437d1d AMK's latest version. 1997-12-11 20:19:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bd49ac4492 The 'l' flag (locale specific matching) has been renamed to 'L'. 1997-12-10 23:05:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d58daff686 Planned release date for 1.5b2. 1997-12-10 18:56:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 736fe5e918 Document binary format and __init__-free unpickling. Added a pointer
to cPickle.
1997-12-09 20:45:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a42c17851c Turn the table for flags into a nested itemized environment. 1997-12-09 20:41:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eefcba61f4 Fix a little mess (Likecode{...} -> Like \code{...}) in recently added text. 1997-12-09 19:47:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8291bb3693 Reference to PYTHONPATH should be PYTHONSTARTUP. 1997-12-09 19:46:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 28f9a68deb Added note about the module's obsolescence. 1997-12-09 19:45:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 138dac5a1b Added more warnings about ni's demise. 1997-12-09 15:03:41 +00:00
Fred Drake a2e268aa40 Mark file names with \file{} instead of \code{}. 1997-12-09 03:28:42 +00:00
Fred Drake c5aec05967 Separated the definitions of ntohs(), ntohl(), htons(), htonl(). Separate
descriptions really make things look a bit better, and should improve the
ability to re-purpose the content.
1997-12-08 21:25:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 8ca70069a6 Added Emacs turd so this file has the correct mode in Emacs / X/Emacs, even
if you don't have .perl in your mode table.
1997-12-08 20:59:54 +00:00
Fred Drake a5a3cdcf4d Added Emacs turd so this file has the correct mode in Emacs / X/Emacs.
clean_key():  Override the standard LaTeX2HTML clean_key() to remove a
	leading HTML tag, if present.  This broke the indexes for the library
	reference (at least) since many of the strings began with <code> or
	something similar.
1997-12-08 20:58:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a417b66204 Updated the README to the current status. Added a note about the
"times" option.
1997-12-08 20:51:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0b334104ac New version from AMK -- with minor corrections to make it legal latex. 1997-12-08 17:33:40 +00:00
Fred Drake f3d729c8f9 Fixed SFT #23842: leave in non-standard style options when checking in an
update.  ;-(
1997-12-08 15:48:35 +00:00
Fred Drake e907208b30 Some reorganization (all limit operations & constants together, and all usage
functions and constants together).

Make explicit datadesc sections for each of the constants which might appear,
and have a description of each.  (Descriptions are based on the Linux
documentation and sources and the Solaris man pages.)

Hopefully Jeremy won't mind, because I didn't ask.  ;-)
1997-12-06 07:25:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a0eaa2200c Some manipulations with tags to get the TOC and Index to look better 1997-12-06 00:39:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3e396cf9ff New WML file, this time with working Title and Author tags, and
mapping chapter and section headings to more appropriate nodes so that
the TOC actually works.  Now generates one HTML page per chapter.
1997-12-06 00:38:30 +00:00
Fred Drake eee08cdd54 Make examples consistently use 4-space indentation.
Use \file{} for file names.

Prefer \code{blat} and \emph{blat} to {\tt blat} and {\em blat}; this matches
current style in the Library Reference a bit better.

Made the example startup banner current.  The version number should be
bumped before the next release.
1997-12-04 15:43:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 0d3b4f8beb Fixed unresolved reference problem; this module wasn't \label{}ed.
Remove spurious underscore following book title.  Added specific reference to
a Win32 networking book.

Changed \indexsubitem from (in module SocketServer) to (SocketServer protocol),
since it's talking about a protocol supported by a collection of classes.
1997-12-04 14:36:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 98b032a7c0 Removed unnecessary escaping. 1997-12-04 14:20:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 1cf87496a6 Arg; more nits, but I may as well finish the job.
Removed the large comment remaining from the template documentation
section; the template tells us to remove these once they're not needed.

Remove some trailing whitespace from VM instruction pseudo-code.
1997-12-04 04:57:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 7381e28399 Fixed BINARY_RSHIFT documentation to indicate a right shift instead of a left
shift.

Adjust whitespace around "=" in VM machine descriptions to be consistent
throughout the document.
1997-12-04 04:51:12 +00:00
Fred Drake c2297c1ce9 Changed {\sc gdbm} to \code{gdbm} everywhere.
Fixed \indexsubitem to gdbm instead of dbm.

Changed dbm to \code{dbm} everywhere.
1997-12-04 04:45:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 7c4cba8325 Added handler for opcodedesc environment.
Fixed weird index behavior.
1997-12-03 19:45:08 +00:00
Fred Drake f2d7e5528d make_str_index_entry(): New function. Similar to make_index_entry(), but
includes the string in the returned value instead of the dummy
	filler character.

add_idx():  Override the latex2html function of the same name; this gets
	the anchor properly embedded in the <dt> element, so the index
	works in Grail too.
1997-12-03 19:44:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab76af3d65 Provide default for blocksize on retrbinary (Skip Montanaro). 1997-12-03 19:34:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 456035f4b1 The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions
to use the opcodedesc environment.

Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.

Fixed a typo:  "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.

Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent.  Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me.  It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project.  Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.
1997-12-03 04:06:57 +00:00
Fred Drake a610f9f8c1 Added environment for defining PyVM instructions. This is only used in
the libdis.tex file I'm about to check in.

I'm not sure this is really an optimal solution yet, but it may be the best
alternative.  It avoids describing the instructions as either data items or
functions.

This change was discussed with Guido.  (Guido:  Take a look at the LaTeX
output for this; if this is reasonable I'll go ahead and update the perl
code in myformat.perl to match.)
1997-12-03 03:42:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 240ddc8a68 Typo in example (missing '=') discovered by Sandy Langbart. 1997-12-02 20:08:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3593e5c4c3 Document new behavior of isinstance() when using a type object. 1997-12-02 19:15:01 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0f280b6099 Use $LOGNAME instead of $USER to get the current user -- it seems to
be the state of the art.
1997-12-01 18:50:09 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 433c8ca328 Removed Queue.py. It's documented now. 1997-12-01 16:35:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 798654fc68 Added \indexsubitem definition; functions were previously indexed for the
wrong module.
1997-11-30 05:53:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 2478f9d5a2 Added \indexsubitem definition. Non-optimal, but two modules are sharing
the documentation here.
1997-11-30 05:38:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 92796d1f01 Added \indexsubitem definition; functions were previously indexed for the
wrong module.
1997-11-30 05:27:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 7730cc067f Updated \indexsubitem; functions had been indexed for the wrong module. 1997-11-30 05:23:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73ec2c0081 Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally
messed up (but not checked in) version in my work files and didn't
notice before releasing 1.5 -- at least the distributed latex file
doesn't have the bogus warning about changed __init__ semantics.
1997-11-27 01:39:15 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 330c660f66 The dependency of tarhtml on l2h was a bad idea. 1997-11-26 15:31:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ee9f820cf1 Documented brand new behavior of sys.ps1 and sys.ps2 (str() is applied
to get the actual prompt).
1997-11-25 21:12:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 84cca446f2 Added utility target tarhtml to tar and gzip the HTML files plus their
support (GIFS, icons, style sheets).
1997-11-25 20:49:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 28fbe4dcd2 Adding the icons used by latex2html output to the CVS tree. 1997-11-25 20:14:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 628b4085b5 Ignore html files generated by webmaker. 1997-11-25 20:10:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 000eb0a138 Augmented the script so that (at CNRI anyway) it also invokes webmaker
to create the HTML.
1997-11-25 20:10:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4323f7c7fd Simple index for the reference manuals (mostly for use on the Windows
platform).
1997-11-25 18:27:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 71ace95e12 Updated to the most pressing 1.5 issues. 1997-11-25 18:20:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 580aa8dbc3 Several changes, e.g. restructuring of the intro to be closer to what
it ought to be.  Maybe the last checkin before 1.5b1 is released.
1997-11-25 15:34:51 +00:00
Fred Drake cb91e7bbd3 Added the "italic correction" command ("\/") to the list of ignored commands.
There is at least one of there in the library reference, and this reduces
the warning count.  We *do* know what to do with it!
1997-11-25 04:06:21 +00:00
Fred Drake e624e0f99e Removed leading comment about this being "introductory" documentation;
compared to most, I'd say this section is fairly thorough.

Fixed \indexsubitem definitions for symbol and token module sub-documents.
Perhaps these should be moved to their own files, but they're awefully
small.
1997-11-25 04:04:00 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f259efe3d9 Get rid of math mode in some places. 1997-11-25 01:00:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3e1e274d0b Don't use $math$ mode to typeset a simple '>' sign. Use \code, not \samp. 1997-11-25 00:43:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9d62e80e46 Remove strange use of $math$ mode to produce a backslash. 1997-11-25 00:35:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5b7220f7ee Oops, did the previous delete the wrong way. 1997-11-25 00:05:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d5da7a63c1 Get rid of last traces of module 'audio' 1997-11-24 23:59:31 +00:00

Guido van Rossum e084f0beea Add description for some modules that have been added since this intro
section was last revised...
1997-11-20 21:03:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3472026347 Add description for Queue; fix typo (whichdbm should be whichdb). 1997-11-20 21:00:03 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 17c8e781c0 libqueue.tex: Documentation for the Queue.py module.
Makefile: Add dependency on libqueue.tex

lib.tex: Place the libqueue.tex documentation just after libthread.tex
since Queue depends on thread support in Python.
1997-11-20 19:54:16 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 4552f3d6de In the description of sub(), give a better explanation of the
interface when repl is a function.  Also give a simple example of
using a function repl.
1997-11-20 00:15:13 +00:00

Mention conversion to Perl-style regular expressions.
1997-11-18 15:28:46 +00:00

Guido van Rossum a10768ae44 Docu for xmllib.py, by Sjoerd Mullender. 1997-11-18 15:11:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b62b6d145e Docu for dis.py, written by Martin von Loewis. 1997-11-18 15:10:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9d37a4d332 Small wording change about global and local trace functions. 1997-10-27 19:57:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 040e565261 Ooops, found too more references to old conditions on floating point values. 1997-10-24 21:15:55 +00:00
Fred Drake ae18e9fc1c Removed obsolete discussion on _xdr helper module. 1997-10-24 21:14:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d7dc2eb708 Put {} around \^ in sets to force latex2html to do the right thing... 1997-10-22 03:03:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 828a0bdb1d count() now has a 4th parameter too. Also rephrased the docs for find
to use the same, better words to explain start/end.
1997-10-20 22:40:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 871cf161f1 Documented exc_info(); also updated exc_type and last_type docs. 1997-10-20 22:38:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 9e63faaa66 Change Python-as-executable-script example to use "#! /usr/bin/env python"
since that's now the recommended way to do it.

In pickling discussion, change "code{pickle}" (not missing leading "\") to
"This" since the immediately preceeding sentence ended with the same text
(with the proper "\").  Fixes a formatting bug and an odd glitch in the
writing.
1997-10-15 14:37:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 2950b2d881 Restore the \seealso formatting that got lost when I updated the math
module documentation.
1997-10-13 22:06:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 9dcc5a94c5 Add support for ctypedesc, cvardesc, seealso, seemodule, seetext.
This seems to take care of everything but tables and equations.
1997-10-13 22:04:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 7cd60442b4 Remove macpath entry -- it is already documented. 1997-10-13 22:02:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 5451d67dd9 socket_type ==> SocketType 1997-10-13 21:31:02 +00:00

"not in" operator.
1997-10-13 20:48:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 36fbe76a45 struct _frozen:
Use spaces instead of tabs to indent structure definition; tabs don't
	work in tex/latex.

PyImport_FrozenModules:
	struct _freeze ==> struct _frozen
1997-10-13 18:18:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6cd7ecb10b The sequence behavior is now on the Exception root class rather than
on the StandardError class.
1997-10-07 14:41:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum fdacc58bfe Added pointer to api.tex and note about the out-of-date-ness of this
document.
1997-10-07 14:40:16 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 18b0db3b53 Set Oct 10 as the release date. 1997-10-07 14:39:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9faf4c57b0 Change title to {Python/C API Reference Manual}; remove \bcode \ecode
which appears to be out of fashion in this file.
1997-10-07 14:38:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 6f2a26d42b And "ni" has been documented... 1997-10-06 21:53:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 2df75832b3 Oops; don't know if this was my typo or not: There was a "p" on a line that
should have been blank.
1997-10-06 21:52:31 +00:00
Fred Drake c211254334 Updated the section "Parsing Python". 1997-10-06 21:41:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 14bf341f16 Added keyword module entry. 1997-10-06 21:40:48 +00:00
Fred Drake e061a51de1 Minor nits (Lib/token.py is a file, token is a module...).
Added docs for symbol and token modules at the end.
1997-10-06 21:40:20 +00:00
Fred Drake db12f343bc Documentation for the keyword module. 1997-10-06 21:39:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 00eb96a126 Move the pprint docs after the code docs, so that all parser/codegen type
things come together.
1997-10-06 21:26:03 +00:00
Barry Warsaw dc0f00ad03 Document the mapping object's new get() method. 1997-10-06 17:50:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 04ac894189 Add the four latex2html output directories: api, ext, lib, tut. 1997-10-06 13:20:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c44d3d6664 Done with tread state descriptions. Sigh! 1997-10-06 05:10:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0bfd146594 Added strerror() 1997-10-05 18:54:52 +00:00

and slice.
1997-10-05 18:53:00 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 3cdb8f3286 Update the description and the example to the new functionality, which
is mostly concentrated in a generalized find_module() and the new
load_module().  Added the new module type constants.  Declare that
SEARCH_ERROR and a whole bunch of module-type-specific functions are
obsolete.
1997-09-09 20:53:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9cf4e2bde7 Change packages to site-packages (so it's clearly not a package itself). 1997-09-08 02:02:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 16221126d6 Added warning about ni's obsolescence. Retracted semantic changes
(i.e. when using ni, the old __init__.py semantics prevail!)
1997-09-07 03:02:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 593801142e Initial revision 1997-09-07 02:56:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f01dff7e93 Give in to Mike Meyer -- add *both* lib/python1.5/packages and
lib/site-python to the path (if they exist).  This is a reasonable
compromise.
1997-09-03 22:05:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 28cad964ec Document newly revamped site configuration mechanism.
Damn the criticism in c.l.p!
1997-08-30 20:03:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 36764b8b0e Added docs for 'user' customization module. Renamed libuser.tex
(which had UserDict/UserList) to libuserdict.tex.
1997-08-30 20:02:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2afc811c2 Added os.altsep; this is '/' on DOS/Windows, and None on systems with
a sane filename syntax.
1997-08-29 22:37:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 282290f821 Referred to POSIX docs as well as to Unix docs. 1997-08-27 14:54:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e20aef574a Ignore whitespace between formats (not internal to a count+format). 1997-08-26 20:39:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 81e479a11f Removed some colons that shouldn't be there (probably leftovers from
docstring conversion).
1997-08-25 18:28:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 5de31fc094 Oops, don't suppress echo of the rm command in l2hclean! 1997-08-22 18:20:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 03ff6f7474 Simplify LaTeX2HTML targets && support re-use of output directories (which
saves re-generation of images).

Add l2hclean target.
1997-08-22 18:18:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 289f97d0ea Changed description of SchedParams() in the following way:
\bar{Besocial} --> \var{besocial}
	     ^--- note case ----^

The fixed version matches the signature.  Changed "\bar{Besocial} gives ..."
to "The \var{besocial} flag gives ..." to keep from starting the sentence
with a lowercase token.

(The \bar{} --> \var{} change was required to keep LaTeX happy.)
1997-08-22 13:51:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 2999607e59 Added missing "\end{funcdesc}" after FindFolder documentation. 1997-08-22 13:45:13 +00:00

libmacui.tex	Document asynchronous event handling
libmailbox.tex	Removed mime-turds that somehow got in here
1997-08-18 15:14:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5060b3be9b Consistently change Python-C API to Python/C API; added lots of new
introductory text for reference counts and error handling, with good
examples.

1997-08-14 19:51:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8f06247b51 Added buffer_info() docs. 1997-08-14 19:50:37 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 9c43c590bc More emphasis on os.environ's calling of putenv; and added hint about
flags for open().

Guido van Rossum fd16ca4542 Added mimify docs (Sjoerd). 1997-07-30 22:05:07 +00:00
Fred Drake bc0cd37fe2 l2h target: l2htut was listed twice and l2hapi was skipped. Fixed. 1997-07-30 15:59:25 +00:00
Fred Drake b065452ebc Bump up the version number. The date still needs to be set (Guido will
have to do that one!), but at least the version will match the release
version.  (1.5a2 got skipped for this.)
1997-07-25 13:14:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 12d9eac0a2 A couple of grammatical nits.
Re-sequenced the function descriptions so that the formatting is described
before the assumption is made that the reader has a clue about the formatting.

Moved examples to be closer to the functions being demonstrated.

Added example of saferepr() result.
1997-07-24 15:39:16 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6576dd6ad6 Document new 'quote' flag to cgi.escape(). 1997-07-19 20:16:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 61c270345c added code.py; codehack.py is obsolete 1997-07-18 21:08:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1c78cf3317 Added label{module-spam} 1997-07-18 21:07:34 +00:00

Barry Warsaw f308c0f1fc From reading the source, it turns out that the setkey() method can

1996-12-06 20:06:37 +00:00
Fred Drake fc8f6f3ed3 (Makefile): The sed hack is needed for all 3 manuals processed by latex2html;
the comma must represent a bug in the modified process_command()
	function, but I haven't found it yet.  This will work for now.
1996-12-06 18:45:30 +00:00
Fred Drake f1e6707ea6 (Makefile): Rip out old partparse.py / texi2html.py stuff -- use latex2html

	Maybe I'll fix this for Python 2.0.
1996-12-05 22:28:43 +00:00

	explicit; if not made explicit a directory of the given base
	name can cause makeindex to blow up.  Specifically, if there is
	a directory ./lib/ created by LaTeX2HTML, "makeindex lib" will
	fail, but "makeindex lib.idx" will not.

	l2h{tut,ext,lib} are now dependent on myformat.perl.

	l2h adds ls2lib and removes the non-existant l2href.
1996-11-11 21:03:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 4464022799 (myformat.perl): Simplify generated HTML for "\optional{...}". 1996-11-11 20:51:09 +00:00
Fred Drake b33021b572 (fix_libaux.sed): Hackish little sed script to modify lib.aux to get section
numbers right for latex2html for section titles which include
	"\sectcode{__.*__}" in the name.  Perhaps less general than it should
	be, but sufficient.
1996-11-11 20:49:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 784c6d3684 (.latex2html-init): Perform some limited setup for the reference manuals;
some defaults are set here, but mostly this allows the "\," command
	to be used the way it is in the Python documentation.

	All future documentation should probably be written with only ","
	in the argument lists and not "\,".
1996-11-11 20:46:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 9b550d992a (myformat.sty): Simplify \varvars definition. 1996-11-11 20:43:46 +00:00
Fred Drake c384d7560e (myformat.perl): Updated to allow library reference manual to be handled by
latex2html.  Mostly added support for custom environments and some
	of the smaller commands used in the library reference (\e, \optional).
1996-11-11 16:04:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b54f4dea73 Added 'Introduction' section head and 'Memory Management' subsection. 1996-11-06 15:47:58 +00:00

Fred Drake 7a7480dc84 (myformat.perl): Added handler for cfuncdesc environment. This is needed
for the extending & embedding manual.
1996-10-29 15:56:57 +00:00
Fred Drake eb33c781f3 (myformat.sty, extref.tex): Moved definition of cfuncdesc environment to
myformat.sty; having it in extref.tex confuses LaTeX2HTML.
1996-10-29 15:55:08 +00:00
Fred Drake fd255e433f (tut.tex): Added matching \normalsize after \small font control command
(and the contents it was supposed to be affecting).  The latest
	LaTeX2HTML handles these, but didn't close it as expected.  This
	handles that problem and does not affect the PostScript output.
1996-10-29 15:50:05 +00:00
Fred Drake abcb38250b (texi2html.py): Minor improvement to HTML 3.0 output for code examples. 1996-10-25 22:13:59 +00:00

1996-10-14 16:20:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9b0581192d Added embryonic description of fcntl.lockf(). Added pointer to that

Fred Drake 22f7f9e671 (texi2html.py): Added CLASS=Navigation attribute to DIV around top/bottom

Fred Drake 5f2aa7113d (Makefile): Push texi2html.py options into a make variable. 1996-10-09 19:33:17 +00:00

print section titles even when the debugging output is not enabled.
	Added -3 option to generate HTML 3.0 constructs where meaningful.

	Removed repititive garbage generation:  the old version added simple
	descriptive comments after every datadesc/funcdesc/*desc entry:

	function(args) -- function of module xxxx
	    Description....

	These comments are no longer generated:

	function(args)
	    Description....
1996-10-09 19:05:12 +00:00

1996-10-09 16:13:22 +00:00

to 4 spaces per level (no longer 8).

(Makefile):  Use .pyc versions of partparse.py and texi2html.py to generate
	converted documentation formats.  This reduces the startup costs;
	probably doesn't affect anyone but me in reality, but helps when
	working on the docs.
1996-09-13 14:44:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 4b7d5a49ab (libparser.tex): Revised parser module documentation; improved logical
