Guido van Rossum facf24bdc7 Don't use Latex \code{...} in docstrings. 2001-12-17 16:07:06 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 6e1c576a4e Get rid of the stupid backslash in front of the column zero open
paren.  This was there to worm around a stupid XEmacs bug, but since I
can't tickle the bug in newer XEmacsen (just tried w/21.4.5) it's
possible the problem has been fixed.  We shouldn't have to be working
around editor bugs anyway.

If it crops up again, I'll report it (again) to the XEmacs crowd.

Guido van Rossum e2ae77b8b8 SF patch #474590 -- RISC OS support 2001-10-24 20:42:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e37e96df06 Correct the URL for the license (only used when the LICENSE[.txt] file
is not found).  Being fancy: insert the first 3 characters of
sys.version in the URL.

Martin v. Löwis 339d0f720e Patch #445762: Support --disable-unicode
- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.

Just van Rossum ba634b2ec3 Rewrote Jack's latest change so it does what it intended to do... 2001-08-15 21:20:42 +00:00
Jack Jansen 31b5323c84 Don't remove non-directories from sys.path on the mac: files
can be on sys.path too.

Fred Drake 7f5296e7c0 Make the add*() helper functions more robust for use after intialization
is complete:  recompute _dirs_in_sys_path each time these functions are
entered after module initialization is complete, and reset before
returning to user code.

This closes SF patch #442983.

Guido van Rossum 27451d0fc8 Copying this 2.1.1 bugfix to the trunk:
Fix showstopper SF bug #442983: use of site.addsitedir() was broken
because it references the global dirs_in_sys_path which is deleted.
The fix avoids deleting that global.

(My email through python.org or digicool.com is non-functional at the
moment; use gvanrossum@home.com to reach me.)

Fred Drake fd4ff52c22 Actually remove directories from sys.path if they do not exist; the intent
is to avoid as many stat() calls as we can.

Tim Peters 6a479f5488 PEP 250: Add lib/site-packages to sys.path on Windows; also sys.prefix
to sys.path if os.sep == ':' (Macs?).  See PEP 250.
2001-07-12 05:20:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 1fb5ce0323 Avoid using os.path.normcase() on sys.path elements; doing so causes paths
to be presented in an unfamiliar case on case-preserving filesystems.

This closes SF patch #436173.

Guido van Rossum 83213cc0a0 Add new built-in 'help' which invokes pydoc.help (with a twist). 2001-06-12 16:48:52 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 62d248892f Two minor changes for better Jython compatibility. Finn Bock says:
Change 1: Not all 'modules' in sys.modules have a
    sensible __file__ attribute. Some of our java package
    can have the __file__ attribute set to None.

    Change 2: In jython we have the jython license file in
    <root> and the CPython license file in <root>/Lib. By
    reversing the search sequence jython will find and
    show the jython license file before the CPython file.

Closes SF patch #405853.

Guido van Rossum d74fb6b12a RISCOS changes by dschwertberger. 2001-03-02 06:43:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 48eb9cd62f A hack to augment sys.path with the build/lib.<platform> directory
created by Andrew's setup.py script, *if* we're actually running from
the build directory.  (The test for that: whether the sys.path[-1]
ends in "/Modules".)

This has one disadvantage: it imports a fair amount of code from the
distutils package, just in order to be able to calculate the correct
pathname.  See if I care. :-)

Martin v. Löwis bb0a4b7898 Patch #103134: Support import lines in pth files. 2001-01-11 13:02:43 +00:00
Jack Jansen d49056cd90 The ".pth" code knew about the layout of Python trees on unix and
windows, but not on the mac. Fixed.

Barry Warsaw 23f26ce813 Fix `credits' to credit the Jython developers when running under that
interpreter.  Update and reword the credits for CPython.  Closes SF
patch #102665.

Guido van Rossum f19a7ac220 Fix a few problems with the _Printer class and the license variable.
1. repr(license) will no longer print to stdout and read from stdin;
you have to use license().  `license` is a short message explaining
this.

2. Use lazy initialization so that startup isn't slowed down by the
search for the LICENSE file.

3. repr(license) actually returns the desired string, rather than
printing to stdout and returning ''.  (Why didn't we think of this
before?)

4. Use the pythonlabs license URL as the license fallback instead of
the CNRI license handle.

Fred Drake 38cb9f1f17 Convert all entries on sys.path to absolute paths, and also update the
__file__ attributes of already-imported modules to be absolute.  This helps
robustify the interpreter against os.chdir() calls from the application.

Only remove setdefaultencoding() from sys if it exists; if this module is
run as a script (since there is a _test() function that gets run), it broke
because the script attempts to remove it again after the import of site
has already done so.  This allows the module to be run as a script again.

makepath():  New function, standardizes all pathname normalization in one
             place.

Marc-André Lemburg 09cad08d75 sys.setdefaultencoding() should only be called in case the standard
default encoding ("ascii") is changed. This safes quite a few cycles
during startup since the first call to .setdefaultencoding() will
initialize the codec registry and the encodings package.

See python-dev for a discussion (Subject: "[Python-Dev] [comp.lang.python] sys.setdefaultencoding (2.0b1)").

Guido van Rossum d1252395bd Add new builtin commands "copyright", "license", "credits" which
display the information you would expect them to display.

Marc-André Lemburg 990bbe90d5 Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal@lemburg.com>:
Added support to set the default encoding of strings
at startup time to the values defined by the C locale.

The sys.setdefaultencoding() API is deleted after having
set up the encoding, so that user code cannot subsequentely
change the setting. This effectively means that only site.py
may alter the default setting.

Guido van Rossum e720176548 Wrong pathname in docstring detected by Fredrik Nehr. 1998-11-25 15:57:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d89fa0c576 Add built-in string variables 'quit' and 'exit' that display a hint on
how to exit (in a platform dependent way!).  We use os.sep to
determine which platform we're on, since I expect that this will work
better for minority platforms.

sys.prefix is no longer empty on any platform that I know of.

Guido van Rossum ad87d3e826 Give in to Mike Meyer -- add *both* lib/python1.5/packages and
lib/site-python to the path (if they exist).  This is a reasonable
compromise.
