Fix the broken PDF links, really this time!
...
Appending a junk char to the end doesn't quite do it, or doesn't seem to at
any rate. Instead, pad the page numbers to always be 3 charaters wide, with
leading zeros.

a88d681255
Change the form of the name given to each page of the PDF from "page.%d" to
...
"page.%dx"; this works around an acroread bug that causes targets not to be
recognized if their name is a prefix of another target in the file.
1998-04-15 14:53:28 +00:00

Revert markup around list of display fields from the disassembler; it doesn't

Fix bug in little-used markup: don't forget to pass the source text along!

Fixed example to load the startup file from a script (didn't test for the

2cb824cbf9
Don't use \samp when \code is better.
...
Consistently use ' instead of ": this conforms to my unofficial stance that
constants should be presented using the repr() whenever it makes sense. This
isn't because I think repr() is the greatest thing since spam, just that it's
an easy to adopt consistency standard. (It also holds no new surprises!)

works.
1998-04-09 15:44:58 +00:00
8a254b5967
Removed misleading comment about GNU software. This module and the zlib

library have no relationship with GNU software other than implementing some of
the same algorithms and file format. (The zlib module is more general.)
1998-04-09 15:41:44 +00:00

1998-04-09 14:50:47 +00:00
20ca9171c1
Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it
...
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).
Add section for previously documented obsolete modules. Includes ni, rand,
and soundex.
1998-04-09 14:32:28 +00:00

058068d992
Nearly a complete re-write.

Basically, it now works and produces a nice-looking HTML index.
Shows some promise for extensibility, but still young. Needs useful comments.
1998-04-08 23:12:51 +00:00
166abbabf9
Remove option to strip out <tt>...</tt> from index entry text; this is now
...
left to the buildindex.py script.
Change the field separator used in the index.dat file so utilities like grep
are useful on these files; they can't typically handle NUL bytes.
Protect index entries for environment variables from being handled as
case-insensitive by buildindex.py.
1998-04-08 23:10:54 +00:00

Correct definition of CTIME.
1998-04-08 22:44:25 +00:00
3f3c25fc03
Set flag to remove <tt>...</tt> markup from the index entries; it just ends up

looking really bad in popular browsers, mostly due to vertical size differences
between the roman and monospaced fonts.
1998-04-08 13:46:24 +00:00
2764dd33cf
Separate sections on anydbm and dumbdbm.

Remove obsolete lines like this:

0a2eb138e7
Style specification for building *.ind from *.idx. This is needed to avoid
...
wrapping of long lines, which tools/indfix.py doesn't understand, and needs
to to handle collapsing of entries which can share a common emtry and just
be short entries themselves. We get the added benefit of nicer formatting.
