Thomas Heller ada638bf91 For now, I gave up with automatic conversion of reST to Python-latex,
so I'm writing this in latex now.

Skeleton for the ctypes reference.

Andrew M. Kuchling 3e134a5960 Use 'speed' instead of 'performance', because I agree with the argument
at http://zestyping.livejournal.com/193260.html that 'erformance' really means
something more general.

George Yoshida 2f6ce536ab Mention that Exception is now a subclass of BaseException.
Remove a sentence that says that BaseException inherits from BaseException.
(I guess this is just a copy & paste mistake.)

Tim Peters e6d9506611 Typo repair. 2006-05-13 23:31:05 +00:00
Tim Peters 8931ff1f67 Teach PyString_FromFormat, PyErr_Format, and PyString_FromFormatV
about "%u", "%lu" and "%zu" formats.

Since PyString_FromFormat and PyErr_Format have exactly the same rules
(both inherited from PyString_FromFormatV), it would be good if someone
with more LaTeX Fu changed one of them to just point to the other.
Their docs were way out of synch before this patch, and I just did a
mass copy+paste to repair that.

Not a backport candidate (this is a new feature).

Guido van Rossum da5b701aee Get rid of __context__, per the latest changes to PEP 343 and python-dev
discussion.
There are two places of documentation that still mention __context__:
Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex -- I wasn't quite sure how to rewrite that without
spending a whole lot of time thinking about it; and whatsnew, which Andrew
usually likes to change himself.

Andrew M. Kuchling 7acb7b40ba [Bug #1477102] Add necessary import to example
This may be a useful style question for the docs -- should examples show
the necessary imports, or should it be assumed that the reader will
figure it out?  In the What's New, I'm not consistent but usually opt
for omitting the imports.
