Fred Drake 2df75832b3 Oops; don't know if this was my typo or not: There was a "p" on a line that

Fred Drake e061a51de1 Minor nits (Lib/token.py is a file, token is a module...).
Added docs for symbol and token modules at the end.
1997-10-06 21:40:20 +00:00

Fred Drake 923c4eeeef Don't do weird things with the "import parser"; just do it. Sheesh... 1997-10-06 20:56:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a11ccccd24 The usual (and some new modules). 1997-10-06 20:19:59 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 2237b73baf Several changes:

- Add link processing in <AREA> tags.

- Change safeclose() to avoid crashing when the file has no geturl()
method.

Barry Warsaw fc3e61cd28 UserDict.get(): New method to mirror built-in dictionaries' get()
method.
1997-10-06 17:50:04 +00:00
Barry Warsaw c38c5da5d0 dict_get(): New method for item access with different semantics than
__getitem__().  This method never raises an exception; if the key is
not in the dictionary, the second (optional) argument is returned.  If
the second argument is not provided and the key is missing, None is
returned.

mapp_methods: added "get" method.
1997-10-06 17:49:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 596db3161c Move the __getitem__() definition from StandardException to Exception.
This allows stuff like this out of the box:

	try:
	    ...
	except socket.error, (code, msg):
	    ...
1997-10-06 15:48:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bf9d353bab New "re" regular expression support.
The new re module was written by Andrew Kuchling and uses the pcre
code in ../Modules/.  The old re module has been renamed to re1,
just in case you need it for comparison.
1997-10-06 14:45:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 51b3aa3d38 New "re" regular expression support.
This code is written by Philip Hazel and Andrew Kuchling.
It requires a new "re.py" module, too.
1997-10-06 14:43:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 04ac894189 Add the four latex2html output directories: api, ext, lib, tut. 1997-10-06 13:20:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c44d3d6664 Done with tread state descriptions. Sigh! 1997-10-06 05:10:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 86b7db3750 Oops -- needed to fix another place affected by the change back to
$(MACHDEP) being just the platform name, without "plat-" prefix...
(To be precise, the libainstall target was totally broken.)
1997-10-06 00:15:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0bfd146594 Added strerror() 1997-10-05 18:54:52 +00:00

1997-10-05 15:27:29 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 474ba3bd46 The directory containing config.h has changed. 1997-10-05 03:01:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6af6d3511e Turns out whatsound.py and sndhdr.py were identical modules.
Since there's also an imghdr.py file, I propose to make sndhdr.py the
official one.  For compatibility, whatsound.py imports * from
sndhdr.py.
1997-10-04 20:29:17 +00:00
Fred Drake bfeb74d4ca install: New target that installs shared modules in
$exec_prefix/lib/python$VERSION/site-packages by default.
1997-10-04 04:56:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d99d714ac9 Install install-sh with the other config files.
Could be useful for an install target in Misc/Makefile.pre.in.

Guido van Rossum a7f2e813c9 Remove unreachable "return 1" at end of ensure_fromlist(). 1997-10-03 15:33:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum aa9606f45a Fix small omission: with all the new code, sys.exit(None) would print
"None"; this should be equivalent to sys.exit(0).
1997-10-03 13:53:28 +00:00
Fred Drake d80b3bdc1e Argh; do the same for the "Release" version of the config. 1997-10-02 20:36:45 +00:00
