...
documentation.
1996-10-14 16:20:42 +00:00
9b0581192d
Added embryonic description of fcntl.lockf(). Added pointer to that
...
in posixfile (which is obsolescent).
1996-10-11 17:43:34 +00:00
22f7f9e671
(texi2html.py): Added CLASS=Navigation attribute to DIV around top/bottom
...
navigation links for HTML 3 version.
Forced a blank line above the footnotes separator for HTML 2; at
least one page did not get this spaced correctly.
1996-10-11 16:54:00 +00:00
4bf1296e05
(libtypes.tex): Correct reversal of two words in description of
...
formatting strings.

data item was omitted, which also affected the indentation of the
description.
1996-10-10 20:09:56 +00:00
5f2aa7113d
(Makefile): Push texi2html.py options into a make variable.
1996-10-09 19:33:17 +00:00
0282726643
(texi2html.py): Tightened the generated HTML slightly. Added -p option to
...
print section titles even when the debugging output is not enabled.
Added -3 option to generate HTML 3.0 constructs where meaningful.
Removed repititive garbage generation: the old version added simple
descriptive comments after every datadesc/funcdesc/*desc entry:
function(args) -- function of module xxxx
Description....
These comments are no longer generated:
function(args)
Description....
1996-10-09 19:05:12 +00:00
0b95abcba5

7edd8d3c58

a39a25e5ec
(texi2html.py): Use "if __name__ == '__main__':" test. Adjust indentation
...
to 4 spaces per level (no longer 8).
(Makefile): Use .pyc versions of partparse.py and texi2html.py to generate
converted documentation formats. This reduces the startup costs;
probably doesn't affect anyone but me in reality, but helps when
working on the docs.
1996-09-13 14:44:34 +00:00
