Fred Drake c94d9348ca In descriptions of Py_GetPrefix() and Py_GetExecPrefix(), make sure the
"--" at the start of the configure options isn't collapsed to "-" when the
HTML is generated.

Fred Drake 2de75ec245 Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).

Fred Drake 7e9d3148d1 Capitalize "Python" for consistency. 1998-04-03 05:02:28 +00:00
Fred Drake c6fa34e4d0 Markup consistency & nits.
Fix typo in a C code example:  KeyError is spelled PyExc_KeyError in C; the
"K" is upper case!

Some index entries.

On function signatures, always use parameter names.  Make return types match
what's in the header files.  When the return type is a pointer, always omit
the space between te type name and the "*"; leaving it in results in

	type * func(..)

and having two spaces there just looks terrible.
