Andrew M. Kuchling 791b366f8f Added more changes from /F 2000-07-01 15:04:18 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling fed4f1e9c5 Changes from Moshe:
- distutils: Windows installers are already working

- string methods: .join() seems to be the concensus, so it should probably
  be docommented

- filecmp.py supersedes cmp, cmpcache and dircmp

- winreg is completely new: _winreg is an adaptation of what used to be in
  win32api, and winreg is a Python implementation which adds OO syntax.
  Perhaps you know that, but the text is misleading.

Fred Drake 35c09f2e51 Revise the description of when functions retrieved from class instances
are and are not turned into bound methods; some confusion was noted by
Andrew Dalke.

In particular, it has to be noted that functions located on the class
instance are not turned into any sort of method, only those which are
found via the underlying class.
