Jeff Kunce writes (and he is right):
...
Also, I just ran across a [possible] minor glitch
in the library documentation for site.py. It says:
"For example, suppose sys.prefix and
sys.exec_prefix are set to `/usr/local'. The
Python 1.5 library is then installed in
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5'. Suppose this has a
subdirectory `/usr/local/python1.5/site-packages'
with three subsubdirectories, `foo', `bar' and
`spam'..."
I think it should be:
"...Suppose this has a subdirectory
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5/site-packages' with..."

Consistency: Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.
Consistency: Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.
Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP". I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.
