before I remove all this cruft.

Guido van Rossum d540509682 Changes copied from the FrameMaker version. Hardly anything (but then
this is the shortest chapter.)

Hurray, I'm done with this!

Guido van Rossum 5399d68c4b Changes copied from the FrameMaker version. Not too much. 1998-07-24 18:51:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 56c2013d15 Changes copied from the FrameMaker version. Also documented some

undocumented.

Guido van Rossum 5f574aace9 Added back the description of the exec statement. It appears that I
accidentally cut it out when removing the access statement!  Added a
paragraph on __builtins__ and other possible manipulations of the key
space of the dictionaries.  Added some index entries.
1998-07-06 13:18:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 60f2f0cf8e Lots of changes to get this in sync with the Frame version.

Guido van Rossum c85be6a0ff Fix another oldie (item (b) only):
Date:    Fri, 20 Dec 1996 14:47:50 +0100
From:    Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.eclipse.it>
To:      Python List <python-list@cwi.nl>
Subject: Typos in ref manual

Hi all,
browsing the reference manual I noticed what seem two small errors:
  a) in the list of keywords (section 2.3.1) 'exec' is missing
  b) in the Operator Precedence table (5.12) the comparison operators
     include '=', but probably '==' was intended.
Hope this help,
lele.

Guido van Rossum 47e09c43fd Change the date to March 6, 1998.
Migration to Frame 5.5.

Checking in the PDF file.  (This is questionable -- but we check in the
Postscript as well.  Perhaps *both* should be removed from the CVS tree,
now everything is unbundled and we're distributing PS and PDF tarballs?)

Note -- the HTML generation using webmaker is currently broken.  I'll
have to look into generating HTML from Frame...
