Document splitdrive().
...
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs. "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.

0c9608cf1b
Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the
...
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX). Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it. Adapted the doc strings too.
1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00

Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).
1999-02-02 18:58:33 +00:00

this takes 5 minutes off the conversion of the whole tree by
reducing the number of tree-traversals from 14 to 1.
1999-01-29 21:31:12 +00:00
666e60095b

1999-01-29 21:22:55 +00:00
cb65781d93
Rewrite code that converts the little descriptor environments to build

the right <signature>s and <description>. This seems to work a lot
better now!
1999-01-29 20:55:07 +00:00

The OASIS Exchange table model public text.
1999-01-29 15:57:31 +00:00
7dab6affba
Update the docstring.
...
Lots of changes to get the paragraph marking to work, and not go into
an infinite recursion.
Start to rationalize markup of method signatures; not complete.
find_all_elements(): similar to getElementsByTagName(), but operates
on the not-quite-legal fragments we deal with here.
Simplifies several individual transforms.
fixup_sectionauthors(): Convert \sectionauthor items to <author> just
after the <section>'s <title>.
1999-01-28 23:59:58 +00:00
3f3b09657f
Added table entries for \methodline, \methodlineni.

Don't build info for the Macintosh module reference by default; it
...
doesn't do well.
1999-01-27 18:30:16 +00:00
aa2aea0e79
\py@linkToName: New macro to consolidate support for most internal
...
hyperlinking in the PDF version. This also allows many of the
macros that do this stuff to be a good bit more readable.
Takes the target name and link content as parameters.
Use \py@linkToName for all internal links.
1999-01-27 17:37:36 +00:00
580f4ab5dc
Added the files for the repr and ConfigParser modules.
1999-01-27 17:21:09 +00:00
9d814c6805
Document the repr module. This removes the entire "Code objects and
...
files, debugger etc." section from "Undocumented Modules"!
1999-01-27 17:20:33 +00:00
da452bf6a7
Don't say that the module defines the "following functions" and then
...
only describe one; say "following function" instead!
Merge the two one-sentence paragraphs into a single paragraph, so it
doesn't look too stupid.
1999-01-27 15:48:23 +00:00
ebe2a12de8
Incorporate changes for patched version of ConfigParser.
1999-01-26 21:49:05 +00:00
9f253dc3ff
\py@modindex: Format the index entry for the module index more like
...
that used in the "normal" index. No visual difference, but
more easily processed by helper scripts.
1999-01-26 19:23:09 +00:00

Add "term" to AUTOCLOSE.
1999-01-22 22:48:24 +00:00
d1dbf633ed
Header for PyObject_DelItem() mentioned non-existing 3rd argument.
1999-01-22 20:10:49 +00:00
43278f01dc
convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of
...
general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted
when SGML is generated. This can be used to tell the markup
generator to drop stuff like </para>. Note that it needs to
be possible for the closing tag to *always* be omitted for it
to be included in "autoclose".
main(): Added command-line option "-a" / "--autoclose" to set the
list of general identifiers passed to the convert() function
as the "autoclose" parameter. The list may only be specified
once (not additive) and GIs should be comma-separated. The
default list includes only "para".
1999-01-20 20:35:05 +00:00
0a5b8de5e2
Modified the "sgml" and "xml" targets to stop if the sub-makes fail in
...
any subdirectory; don't continue with remaining subdirs.
Added "api", "ext", "lib", "mac", "ref", and "tut" targets to only do
submakes in those directories. This is just a lot easier to use than
to cd into the subdir and use make.rules directly.
1999-01-20 17:26:56 +00:00
19a0dba342
Add caveat on partial dependence on the "cl" module, only available on
...
IRIX systems.
1999-01-20 16:26:09 +00:00
9ea3e36419
Move the jpeg module to the SGI section; it is dependent on the "cl"
...
module available on IRIX.
1999-01-20 15:55:20 +00:00

create_module_info(): If there's a \moduleauthor, move it to an
...
<author> inside the <moduleinfo> element.
Fix problems with paragraph identification.
1999-01-19 23:09:31 +00:00
36dfe58694
isnmtoken(), istoken(): Fix to ensure the regex has to match the
...
entire attribute value.
Add ability to save list of "empty" elements to a file -- enabled by
constant in the code.
1999-01-19 23:03:04 +00:00
2664db9f76
handle_labels(): Fix problem for document fragments containing more
...
than one "root" that prevented all the <label id=...> items
from being promoted to id attributes on the enclosing chapter/
section/... properly.
1999-01-19 21:46:48 +00:00
a7998f650a
Revised comments on null bytes in pattern string.

introductory text).
1999-01-19 19:35:18 +00:00
d6ced7d199
convert(): Change the element name remapping to convert <refmodule>
...
to <module link>.
1999-01-19 17:11:23 +00:00
f82e4ab617
format_attrs(): Attempt a bit more minimization for SGML output.
1999-01-19 17:10:31 +00:00
9bbdce5945
add_module_idx(), add_idx_hook():
...
Change the message printed before running buildindex.py;
"Doing the index..." wasn't clear and could be misinterpreted
with an inappropriate mindset. ;-)
1999-01-19 16:30:10 +00:00
7eca8e5017
Fix typo spotted by Jeff MacDonald <jam@ans.net>.
1999-01-18 15:46:02 +00:00
589bc63e84
Add a "tarball" target.
1999-01-14 22:35:05 +00:00
6038f54b74
Adjust so that we are no longer using special entities for well-known
...
names. These are too much of a pain for occaissional authors.
1999-01-14 21:44:56 +00:00
53610caee2
for method getaddrlist(): Added a note clarifying that all named
...
headers and their continuation lines are parsed.
1999-01-14 21:26:54 +00:00
3effeedad3
Shorten the name of the <rfc> "number" attribute to "num".
1999-01-14 21:18:52 +00:00
d24167baf2
Make <rfc> no longer an empty element but a container. The text
...
currently generated by the LaTeX and LaTeX2HTML processes is generated
here as well, making it more flexible in the SGML version.
Reduce the <args> element so that <optional> goes away; just use
square brackets to indicate what's optional. This makes it easier to
read than the LaTeX, and the processor can do any checking it needs to
in order to make sure it's legit. Possible shortcoming: DSSSL
processors may need more explicit markup. Can probably hack around it
for this case, but we'll see.
1999-01-14 21:18:03 +00:00
f8ebb5521d
Several new functions to re-write tables to be at least partly
...
conformant with the OASIS Exchange model. There's a little more
massage left to do, but not much.
1999-01-14 19:45:38 +00:00
a50a1df588
Added clean and clobber targets.
1999-01-14 18:26:23 +00:00

"Driver" makefile to convert all documents to SGML or XML at once.
1999-01-14 18:13:59 +00:00

Add usage of the "driver" Makefile.
1999-01-14 18:12:33 +00:00

Elaborate a comment on the format of the table that drives the
...
conversion.
1999-01-14 18:10:09 +00:00
d7acf02290
Adjustments to allow elements with subelements as parameters. This is
...
used to deal with the table headings and entries.
An additional flag in the element table is used to indicate elements
which have no "general" content, but which do have subelement
content. These must be flagged distinctly from empty elements.
Currently used for \lineii, \lineiii, and \lineiv.
1999-01-14 17:38:12 +00:00
79cbadc194
Added fixinfo.el to the list of dependencies.

Update the comments on info files.
1999-01-13 23:02:38 +00:00
e36e4e6778
Use \refmodule when we say "use the XXX module instead".
...
For the whatsound module, point to sndhdr.
1999-01-13 17:11:52 +00:00
da94374a86
\seemodule: Fix so that each \seemodule entry gets its own paragraph,
...
so they don't get run together when there's no blank line
between them in the source. The HTML conversion already did
the right thing.
\refmodule: Refer to a module, using a hyperlink in the PDF version.
Visually the same as \module.
1999-01-13 17:09:06 +00:00
2581704dfa
do_cmd_refmodule(): New function to support new \refmodule macro.
1999-01-13 17:06:34 +00:00

Added a few items.
1999-01-12 21:31:16 +00:00

Bump the date. Seems like fun. ;-)
1999-01-12 19:51:03 +00:00
701f10fbea
Simplify command that extracts the number of pages from a PostScript

file; use "grep -c" instead of "grep | wc -l | cut ... | tr ...".
1999-01-12 19:28:41 +00:00
39cddb7439
Added \modulesynopsis.
1999-01-12 19:22:11 +00:00

<writer>.send_paragraph(): Clarify what needs to be done by this
...
method and what it should not do. (Specifically: handling
breaking of last line of preceeding paragraph.)
1999-01-12 18:33:47 +00:00
5a0ca4e55c
do_cmd_methodline(): Fixed reference to method name when generating
...
the output HTML.
1999-01-12 04:16:51 +00:00
4856d01797
Removed a lot of unnecessary comment markers which cause unexplained
...
numbers to appear in the HTML version of the manual.
1999-01-12 04:15:20 +00:00
8e2c9457a2
output_body(): For <address> elements, just skip, since they're
...
always part of the page trailer.
1999-01-11 22:30:34 +00:00
bb3b0028ba
Patches describing the statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions. Additional

Remove the "lib-" prefix from the name of the info archive.

convert(): Make sure no line has trailing whitespace. (docfixer.py
...
checks for \n\n as a paragraph separator, LaTeX allows white
space between the newlines.)
1999-01-07 18:47:07 +00:00

ccc627200a
write_idxfile(): New function. Isolate format of the external index
...
data file used by buildindex.py.
next_argument_id(): Removed; no longer used.
next_argument(): Doesn't use next_argument_id(), just does the work.
gen_target(), gen_target_name(): Removed, no longer used. The only
place that used them now does the (trivial) work directly.
Lots of little changes so we never have to pass around $br_id values
all over the place. The only places they're used now new IDs are
generated as needed.
1999-01-05 22:16:29 +00:00

Added missing "from" in IOError description.

do_cmd_methodline(): New function, implements indexing version of

\methodline.
Fixed up support for \withsubitem, hopefully improving the fidelity of
the index a bit.

Typo: "TWELV" --> "TWELVE"
...
Added note at top, since LaTeX style writers like to force name
changes when someone else makes a change to the style. I'm sending a
note to the author reporting the error and asking for an updated
version.
