Tim Peters 6a627250d2 Merge 23c1-branch back into the head. Barry will send email about the
New Plan (releases to be made off the head, ongoing random 2.4 stuff
to be done on a short-lived branch, provided anyone is motivated enough
to create one).

Andrew M. Kuchling 0ceb9b1603 Change \code to \verb, because TeX merges the two dashes into a
hyphen, resulting in the output '-list-classifiers', not the correct
'--list-classifiers'.  I've verified that the line is now correct
in the DVI, PDF, HTML, and ASCII versions.

choice to the list of places MS redistributables might be found.

Jeremy Hylton 969a7003f9 Make sure mimetypes is reinitialized before running the tests.
If some other test comes along and uses mimetypes, it will be
initialized from the system files.

Jeremy Hylton 096d986f3b Restore the locale to "C" on exit.
If this doesn't happen, it leaves the locale in a state that can cause
other tests to fail.  For example, running test_strptime,
test_logging, and test_time in that order.

Jeremy Hylton dabc37ce7b SF bug 770601. 2003-07-17 17:23:30 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton fb509a36c8 Get socketmodule compiling on IRIX 6.5.10.
I don't think the fix here is very good, but I'm not sure what would
be better.  In particular, we should not be defining _SGIAPI, but lots
of things break if we remove it.

Fred Drake 8836e567b9 - remove mention of the isprivate flag, since that isn't directly
documented here, and according to Tim, should never have been there
- misc. cleanups for consistency

Skip Montanaro bfa6872260 Zap the C API subsection altogether for now. It's not actually usable from
C yet anyway.

Skip Montanaro 2491cd98c4 expose the C API subsection which was hidden from LaTeX in a comment. In
the info conversion the \comment LaTeX macro mapped to a Texinfo @ignore
macro.  Unfortunately, py2texi.el is not smart enough to avoid generating
links to the @ignore'd section, which causes makeinfo to croak.

Exposing this text is probably not the most correct thing to do, as this
documentation really belongs in the C API manual.  This does get the info
files generated, however, which is a more practical goal considering the
impending release of 2.3rc1.

Raymond Hettinger 4d6e8fe5d1 Clarify the lack of relationship between rich comparison operators.
Prompted by a discussion on comp.lang.python.

Raymond Hettinger 71adf7e9d8 Doctest now examines all docstrings by default. Previously, it would
skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore
naming convention).  The old default created too much of a risk that
user tests were being skipped inadvertently.  Note, this change could
break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put
failing tests in the docstrings of private functions.  The breakage
is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod()
or Tester().  The more likely case is that the silent failure was
unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be
fixed.
