Fred Drake c1ddc505d9 Minor revision to the "\\" patch, including updating the docs a little to
accomodate the fact that they are more general now that they are for the
os.path module and not just posixpath.

This and the previous patch should be combined and applied to the 2.2-maint
branch.

Fred Drake 73e8ebfc5a Revise text about the level of DOM support, and provide pointers to
the work of the XML-SIG in the main body of the text.

Modify the markup in a few places to avoid wrapping lines in bad
places, and just general cleanliness.

Walter Dörwald 5ccaf8f129 Apply diff3.txt (plus additional documentation)
from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/554192

This adds two new functions to mimetypes:
guess_all_extensions() which returns a list of all known
extensions for a mime type, and add_type() which adds one
mapping between a mime type and an extension.
2002-09-06 16:15:58 +00:00

Michael W. Hudson 53d58bb369 Further SET_LINENO reomval fixes. See comments in patch #587933.
Use a slightly different strategy to determine when not to call the line
trace function.  This removes the need for the RETURN_NONE opcode, so
that's gone again.  Update docs and comments to match.

Thanks to Neal and Armin!

Also add a test suite.  This should have come with the original patch...
2002-08-30 13:09:51 +00:00
Skip Montanaro ee113f08f8 add warning about exception messages 2002-08-28 01:14:57 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 9240be2a35 Note change in behavior from 1.5.2. The new argument to NameError is
an error message and not just the missing name.

Closes SF Bug 599869.

Fred Drake 80a04a4894 Add strong security warning about the rexec module.
Closes SF patch #600861.

Minor markup changes.
2002-08-27 16:46:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 246beb2526 Don't use tempfile.mktemp(), since it produces annoying warnings, and
usually isn't what we want anyway.
2002-08-27 16:34:54 +00:00
Tim Peters ea76c98014 Implemented <, <=, >, >= for sets, giving subset and proper-subset
meanings.  I did not add new, e.g., ispropersubset() methods; we're
going nuts on those, and, e.g., there was no "friendly name" for
== either.
2002-08-25 18:43:10 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 7ad09552d0 Correct documentation of allow_reuse_address to match the actual script.
Closes SF bug 599681.
2002-08-25 16:27:33 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger e87ab3fefe Removed < <= > >= from the API. Implemented as comparisons of the
underlying dictionaries, there were no reasonable use cases (lexicographic
sorting of a list of sets is somewhat esoteric).  Frees the operators
for other uses (such as strict subset and superset comparisons).

Updated documentation and test suite accordingly.

Fred Drake 055be47b43 Fix typo reported to python-docs. 2002-08-23 21:19:53 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger fa8dd5f407 Fix markup and punctuation 2002-08-23 18:10:54 +00:00
Tim Peters b81b252fab s/_as_Temporarily_Immutable/_as_temporarily_immutable/g, because the
latter is what the code actually does.
2002-08-23 17:48:23 +00:00
Tim Peters 54fd3e6ffc pop(): An arbitrary element is removed, not a random element. 2002-08-23 17:45:43 +00:00
Fred Drake d10c6c949a Adjust the markup in a few places so this will actually format.
Remove the third column in the tables since it isn't used.
2002-08-23 17:22:36 +00:00
Fred Drake d526011091 Add an entry for the sets module documentation.
Move another entry so the boilerplate doesn't get mixed up with
document-specific content.

Fred Drake 13090e1025 Give the section on PEP 263 a more meaningful title, so readers will
be able to locate this information without knowing the PEP number.
2002-08-22 16:51:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ec486b87a Add a note that apply() is needed since the extended call syntax is
completely equivalent.
2002-08-22 14:27:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 61cf4407be Added a main() function and support to run this module as a script.
Closes SF feature request #588768.
2002-08-21 20:56:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b09eeea89 Clarify that even though some of the relevant specifications define the
order in which form variables should be encoded in a request, a CGI script
should not rely on that since a client may not conform to those specs, or
they may not be relevant to the request.
Closes SF bug #596866.
2002-08-21 19:24:21 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger a6e16a86c4 Replace all cases of "while 1" with "while True".
Though slightly slower, has better clarity and teaching value.
2002-08-21 04:54:00 +00:00
Fred Drake ffefb1df56 Clarify the endpos argument to the rx.match() method.
Closes SF bug #597177.
2002-08-20 13:57:47 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling bc4651083e Cover the sets module.
(There's a link to PEP218; has PEP218 been updated to match the actual
module implementation?)
2002-08-20 01:34:06 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 6974aa93c1 Create two subsections of the "Core Language Changes" section, because

dict.items/keys/values/iteritems/iterkeys/itervalues().
2002-08-19 21:58:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 45ec02aed1 SF patch 576101, by Oren Tirosh: alternative implementation of
interning.  I modified Oren's patch significantly, but the basic idea
and most of the implementation is unchanged.  Interned strings created
with PyString_InternInPlace() are now mortal, and you must keep a
reference to the resulting string around; use the new function
PyString_InternImmortal() to create immortal interned strings.
2002-08-19 21:43:18 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 5959c559df Added __pow__(a,b) to the operator module. Completes the pattern of
all operators having a counterpart in the operator module.

Closes SF bug #577513.
