Guido van Rossum 1b9e0aae6e Jim Fulton writes:
I have attached a new cPickle that adds a new control attribute
to unpicklers:

  Added new Unpickler attribute, find_global.  If set to None, then
  global and instance pickles are disabled.  Otherwise, it should be set to
  a callable object that takes two arguments, a module name and an
  object name, and returns an object.  If the attribute is unset, then
  the default mechanism is used.

  This feature provides an additional mechanism for controlling which
  classes can be used for unpickling.

join \-terminated lines.

Guido van Rossum a7379d9a34 Avoid triggering Alpha OSF/1 specific code on Alpha NT or Linux. 1999-04-19 16:50:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0a2818fe5b A few wishes are now fulfilled. 1999-04-19 16:26:02 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 17c516eacb Tim Peters implements some of my wishes:
o Makes the tab key intelligently insert spaces when appropriate (see Help
list banter twixt David Ascher and me; idea stolen from every other editor
on earth <wink>).

o newline_and_indent_event trims trailing whitespace on the old line (pymode
and Codewright).

o newline_and_indent_event no longer fooled by trailing whitespace or
comment after ":" (pymode, PTUI).

o newline_and_indent_event now reduces the new line's indentation after
return, break, continue, raise and pass stmts (pymode).

The last two are easy to fool in the presence of strings & continuations,
but pymode requires Emacs's high-powered C parsing functions to avoid that
in finite time.

Fred Drake e9af64c373 Remove superfluous index entry for posix.popen(); no longer
appropriate since popen() is only documented in os.

Fred Drake 511281ac00 In list of sequence comparison examples, "=" should be "==". Reported
by Mirko Liss <n89553@hrz.uni-paderborn.de>.

Fred Drake 0ebd5483be Removed dbhash from the undocumented list. 1999-04-15 16:05:29 +00:00

Fred Drake 666255f5ac Document the dbhash module, and link to it from appropriate places. 1999-04-15 15:11:40 +00:00
Fred Drake f4cbada3f9 Correct documentation for <file>.read(); Python makes a serious
best-effort to return 'size' bytes.  Point out that this may mean
multiple fread() calls.  Reported by Anders Hammarquist
<iko@iko.pp.se> via the Debian crew.
1999-04-14 14:31:53 +00:00
Fred Drake e79f5c1d2b Use the standard stylesheet here as well. 1999-04-14 14:28:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ab98325f7 Use the tools/mkdvi.sh script to generate DVI and PDF output for the
library reference now that it's sufficiently capable.
1999-04-14 14:04:39 +00:00
Fred Drake c260c0bcdb Further refinement, to allow this to handle the library reference as
well as the other "manual" documents.
1999-04-14 13:13:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 011f6fca31 Typo: "Otherwose" --> "Otherwise" (reported by Joakim Sernbrant
<joakim.sernbrant@front.se>).

Misc. small fixes to the logical markup.
1999-04-14 12:52:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 79d41ccdd3 Add some support for the module index, so this can be used to build
the .aux file for any of the "manual" class documents.
1999-04-14 05:02:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a64b355c1 For now, comment out the \ignorePlatformAnnotation; the global index
doesn't really work with this.
1999-04-13 22:19:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 9444df0844 Don't include the verbatim style; the default handling is better. 1999-04-13 22:17:55 +00:00

Fred Drake 31ec33ed60 Work around problems with HTML conversion by making the break and
tbreak synopses be all on one line (each).  Known problem, most
recently reported by Barry Scott <barry@scottb.demon.co.uk>.

Guido van Rossum 9e47859963 Prepare for final release. 1999-04-13 14:47:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8f9fabd360 More (Cameron Laird is honorary; the others are 1.5.2c1 testers). 1999-04-13 14:32:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 495894ee66 While I can't really test this thoroughly, Pat Knight and the Solaris
man pages suggest that the proper thing to do is to add THR_NEW_LWP to
the flags on thr_create(), and that there really isn't a downside, so
I'll do that.
1999-04-13 14:32:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7cf904736e Bunch of new names who helped iron out the last wrinkles of 1.5.2. 1999-04-13 14:25:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a946210a9f Bump the myusterious M$ version number from 1,5,2,1 to 1,5,2,3.
(I can't even display this on NT, maybe Win/98 can?)

Jack Jansen 0d3be0aa55 Class around PixMap objects that allows more python-like access. By Joe Strout. 1999-04-13 11:45:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dabcd0040c Fix mysterious references to jprofile that were in the source since
its creation.  I'm assuming these were once valid references to "Jim
Roskind's profile"...
1999-04-13 04:24:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ba3ed56a22 Removed; since long subsumed in Doc/lib/libthreading.tex 1999-04-13 04:20:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7a1229991d Put back __osf__ support for gethostbyname_r(); the real bug was that
it was being used even without threads.  This of course might be an
all-platform problem so now we only use the _r variant when we are
using threads.
1999-04-13 04:07:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 761fcd03aa Fix accidentally reversed NULL test in load_mark(). Suggested by
Tamito Kajiyama.  (This caused a bug only on platforms where malloc(0)
returns NULL.)
