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.
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.
This is an option for OS-es with case-insensitive but case-preserving
filesystems. It is currently supported for Win32 and MacOS. To
enable it, #define CHECK_IMPORT_CASE in your platform specific
config.h. It is enabled by default on those systems where it is
supported. On Win32, it can be disabled at runtime by setting the
environment variable PYTHONCASEOK (to any value).
When enabled, the feature checks that the case of the requested module
name matches that of the filename found in the filesystem, and raises
a NameError exception when they don't match.
&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.
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.

&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.
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.
checkin of myformat.sty.
Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.
Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
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.
most recently opened URL in self.openedurl of the URLopener instance.
This doesn't really work if multiple threads share the same opener
instance!
Fix: openedurl was actually simply the type prefix (e.g. "http:")
followed by the rest of the URL; since the rest of the URL is
available and the type is effectively determined by where you are in
the code, I can reconstruct the full URL easily, e.g. "http:" + url.
over and around triple-quoted strings:
- move the beginning-of-line to above the p-p-s call
- in the `t' clause of the big cond, where we skip over
triple-quoted strings, first find out if we're looking at a
single or TQS, then skip over it in one fell swoop, instead of
trying to loop over skipage of SQS's.
(py-parse-state): Implement XEmacs only hack to more accurately figure
out whether we're in a string or not. Can't do this in Emacs because
it lacks the necessary primitive, so we just do it the old (and mostly
accurate, but foolable) way for Emacs.
