Guido van Rossum b41addf6a6 Replace all calls to fprintf(stderr, ...) with calls to PySys_WriteStderr(...). 1998-05-12 15:02:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a890e68807 New APIs to write to sys.stdout or sys.stderr using a printf-like interface.
Adapted from code submitted by Just van Rossum.

   PySys_WriteStdout(format, ...)
   PySys_WriteStderr(format, ...)

      The first function writes to sys.stdout; the second to sys.stderr.  When
      there is a problem, they write to the real (C level) stdout or stderr;
      no exceptions are raised (but a pending exception may be cleared when a
      new exception is caught).

      Both take a printf-style format string as their first argument followed
      by a variable length argument list determined by the format string.

      *** WARNING ***

      The format should limit the total size of the formatted output string to
      1000 bytes.  In particular, this means that no unrestricted "%s" formats
      should occur; these should be limited using "%.<N>s where <N> is a
      decimal number calculated so that <N> plus the maximum size of other
      formatted text does not exceed 1000 bytes.  Also watch out for "%f",
      which can print hundreds of digits for very large numbers.

Guido van Rossum 597ac20708 Trivial little change: timer tokens shouldn't have a Print() function,
they should have a Repr() function.

Fred Drake d5d473fd5c Add --letter option, similar to --a4. This is a no-op, but can be used from
a Makefile:  mkhowto.sh --$(PAPER).

Fred Drake 8981fdf16e Add the clean, clobber targets here for this directory. 1998-05-11 19:54:57 +00:00
Fred Drake a4c640e142 Reverted the last change; the extra cruft is harmless for formatted versions,
and allows the info to work through this section.

Nits.

Fred Drake d69e2c4f33 Update some of the comments.
Update the .tar.gz targets so that they work from the top level.

Reinstate the api, ext, lib, ref, and tut targets.

Fred Drake 41814bc51f In package Override, use the getcwd() function from the Cwd module instead of
the one from Override.pm (part of latex2html).

Absolutize the TEXINPUTS environment variable, since we can't count on
latex2html doing it for us (even though I sent in a patch, and it really
should).

Guido van Rossum 1e162d3753 Implement round() slightly different, so that for negative ndigits no
additional errors happen in the last step.  The trick is to avoid
division by 0.1**n -- multiply by 10.0**n instead.

Guido van Rossum ae94cf292b Fix by Sean Reifschneider:
- When facility not specified to syslog() method, use default from openlog()
    (This is how it was claimed to work in the documentation)
  - Potential resource leak of o_ident, now cleaned up in closelog()
  - Minor comment accuracy fix.

Guido van Rossum b1b4f94527 Make Tim O'Malley's requested change: in FieldStorage.__init__(), when
method='GET', always get the query string from environ['QUERY_STRING']
or sys.argv[1] -- ignore an explicitly passed in fp.

Fred Drake b9838d97ad Fix a comment.
Avoid extra level of recursion in the paper-*/ directories.

Added the "info" target to use the subdir.  Partparse, however, is broken
again.

Fred Drake 445cfd339c l2h target: Do the "right thing" regarding the paper-*/ subdirs as the other
"big" targets.  Fix is to set the TEXINPUTS on the command line of the
	sub-make.

Fred Drake f4166a478a Some versions of latex2html don't automatically append the .tex extension to
the name of the main .tex source file if it's not in the current directory.

Fred Drake df68e3dd6d $(KPSEWHICH): Use the older style of calling kpsewhich with the arg
specifying *which* type of path to search.  This works for both
	teTeX 0.4 and 0.9.  This is what we call portability these days!  ;-)

Fred Drake 4a9129c7e8 /bin/sed works on both Solaris and RedHat Linux; /usr/bin/sed does not. 1998-05-08 03:42:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 566d20951d Oops! Must have deleted a word by accident before the last check-in of this
file; "make" (the 'all' target) became a no-op!

Now works as previously described.
