Fred Drake 08abe8e275 Fix stupid typo. 2002-11-15 20:32:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 49b33fa4cb Squash an enormous number of warnings reported when adding "use
warnings;" to this, and keep the "use" statement this time.

Fix an obscure bug that caused weird index entries to be generated in
a few cases, and a minor problem with horizontal alignmetn of the last
column of 5-column tables.

[I'd report a SF bug #, but I can't get to that right now.]
2002-11-15 19:04:10 +00:00
Fred Drake b02f0dfbe9 - Committing the modified signature lines I've been using for a long
time in http://www.python.org/dev/doc/.  There have been no bug
  reports on these for a long time now.
- Remove local "use" statement that duplicates a top-level "use".
2002-11-13 19:16:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 4400509aaa Add \funcline, \funclineni, and \methodlineni to the list of functions
that are processed before their arguments.
Closes SF bug #637807.
2002-11-13 17:55:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 2394900a55 Still more magical <link> elements. 2002-10-30 21:51:18 +00:00
Fred Drake dbb2b9d77e Hackish way to generate an up-<link> for the title page if we have
one.

Added misc. comments.
2002-10-30 21:38:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 0e2e687ba0 Minor rearranging. 2002-10-30 19:55:23 +00:00
Fred Drake dd3d6a03c0 Add support for using a "favicon".
make_head_and_body():  Re-arranged to do (slightly) less work for each page.
2002-10-30 17:00:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 73c5b6602d Clean up some really minor Perl warnings. 2002-10-24 16:36:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 15a159c231 Change the default path to icons so that "mkhowto" does the "right thing" by
default when used for 3rd-party docs.  This requires the standard Python docs
to specify a location, but they are a bit of a special case in sharing one set
of icons among several documents.
2002-10-01 15:20:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 4837fa3a54 \productioncont: Replace leading spaces with &nbsp; so that it's
possible to control the indentation of continuation lines.

cfuncline_helper():  Only mark the argument names are <var>, not the
    whole argument list.  This leaves the argument types in the same
    font as the return type.  Based on a casual suggestion from
    Guido.
2002-06-18 18:30:28 +00:00
Fred Drake f6e902717e Refactor the generation of signature lines for funcdesc, methoddesc,
and friends.  This was part of the changes to the presentation of
signature lines, but does not include any of the aspects that people
questioned.
2002-06-18 18:24:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 6fc22f6c3d Ensure \verbatiminput always uses a unique filename for each input file in
the "Download as text" link.  Previously, it could map multiple source files
to a single name since all files end up with the same extension.
This closes SF bug #558279.
2002-06-17 15:01:05 +00:00
Fred Drake f547863c63 Use Perl function prototypes to help avoid definition/usage mismatches
while modifying these files.
Minor style changes to make the use of "my" with arrays more consistent.
2002-05-23 17:59:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 34adb8a8ec Separate out a \cfuncline macro from the cfuncdesc environment.
This matches many other of the *desc environments, and is useful when
multiple functions share a description.
2002-04-15 20:48:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 0157276cf8 Generate the right annotations in the index entries.
Thanks to Thomas Heller for the sharp eye.
2002-04-15 19:35:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a5e6790d9 Clean up the application of style to verbatim text.
This moves styling to the stylesheet; the use of <dl> structures to control
style sometimes produced improper indentation of subsequent text in many
browsers when the text was already part of the <dl> structure (as in a
function or class description).
2002-04-15 18:41:31 +00:00
Fred Drake eeb5ec42e0 Add support for \cmemberline and the cmemberdesc environment. 2002-04-15 17:46:00 +00:00
Fred Drake e03e1fe5cc Add support for the "Aesop Meta Tag". Not widely used, but not a bad idea,
either.
2002-04-05 17:34:50 +00:00
Fred Drake dbfe768f66 Update the PEP URL format to point to python.org. 2002-04-03 02:47:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 69f0a8e42f The <link> to the stylesheet should include the type attribute. 2002-03-26 19:57:52 +00:00
Fred Drake cf43004b83 Fix broken HTML in the head; this was reported by a user as causing Opera 6.01
to crash.  The user has reported the problem to Opera, but we still should
generate something that passes for HTML.
2002-03-22 17:22:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 5381588073 Revise the markup related to the grammar productions to increase the
level of predictability.  This is not really "good" markup, but is arguably
better than we had before.
This closes SF bug #523117.
2002-03-15 23:21:37 +00:00
Fred Drake f171ad9d99 Change the way \textasciitilde is implemented so it works more consistently
(dropping tildes into data that still goes through LaTeX-like processing is
a bad idea).
2002-03-13 02:44:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 58fb237948 Add implementations for \textgreater and \textless, defined in (relatively)
recent versions of LaTeX2e but not support in LaTeX2HTML.
2002-03-05 04:04:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ca33771f8 Add a new environment for whole-paragraph (or longer) notes & warnings. 2001-12-14 22:50:06 +00:00
Fred Drake e27f86820a The valign attribute to control the vertical alignment of a table cell should
be on the <tr> element, not the <table> element.
Partially fixes SF bug #493243.
2001-12-14 16:54:53 +00:00
Fred Drake be6dd3083c Remove crufty whitespace in a block of index entries.
Minor, but generates slightly smaller HTML & makes it easier to see what's
happening when debugging the HTML.
2001-12-11 20:49:23 +00:00
Fred Drake bb7775a6ae Fix SF bug #479967: Appearantly I broke something that made the index
insertion work.  This fix makes things at least somewhat more explicit, and
adds a little sanity checking (and verbosity!) to
add_bbl_and_idx_dummy_commands().
2001-12-04 17:03:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ed35fd149 Add a new environment in the Python docs markup: seealso*. This is similar
to seealso, but does not add the "See also:" header or put the content in a
box in the HTML version.

Updated the description of \seeurl to better indicate when it should be used;
the old description was written before we had \seetitle.
2001-11-30 18:09:54 +00:00
Fred Drake fb6499fd9c Clean up the tables of child links generated by stock LaTeX2HTML so we get
consistent (lack of) vertical space between sections, and remove some of the
unnecessary cruft that was added in (finally we get to *remove* something
that got generated!).
2001-10-26 14:16:23 +00:00
Fred Drake af07b2c34f Add yet more markup that let's a stylesheet pick out a small bit of the
presentation.  This is acceptable since it only occurs in the formatted
output and does not affect the document markup.
2001-10-26 03:09:27 +00:00
Fred Drake a219b411af Add better support for Mozilla's use of <link> elements. 2001-10-22 16:57:49 +00:00
Fred Drake cc2e306592 Support for the iSilo conversion. 2001-10-19 21:08:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 92350b3a1f New markup: \note{...} and \warning{...} 2001-10-09 18:01:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 479384e1ff Move the styling for the HTML version of \mailheader into the CSS file.
In both the HTML and typeset versions of the documentation, add a colon
after the name of a mail header so that it is more easily distinguished
from other text.
2001-09-26 18:46:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 16bb41934c New \grammartoken markup, similar to \token but allowed everywhere. 2001-08-20 21:36:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 2dc07946bf Make sure that ampersand escaping is still performed on the contents of
local module tables (the lists of modules documented within a chapter,
inserted at the beginning of the chapter).  If this is not done here,
the text is not part of the resulting documents when latex2html does the
processing normally.

This fixes a little bit more of SF bug #451556.
2001-08-17 17:20:44 +00:00
Fred Drake cb19976f1a fix_font(): Instead of using a long if/elsif cluster, use a bloody
dictionary.  Added some entries to the dictionary to fix part of
    SF bug #451556.
2001-08-16 21:56:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 9443dc31c1 Remove the use of the "cat" program. This improves portability to non-Unix
platforms.

This is part the response to SF patch #429611.
2001-08-10 20:12:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 7eac0cb04c Define the \mailheader macro and document conventions for using it. 2001-08-03 18:36:17 +00:00
Fred Drake f269e59232 Define new markup for 5-column tables. 2001-07-17 23:05:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 77602f2e32 Add support for \ulink and hyperlink grammars.
do_cmd_verbatiminput():  Write out a text file containing the content of the
    input file with a .txt extension, and add a link to it at the bottom of
    the presentation.  This easier retrieval of example source code for
    copy & paste use.
2001-07-06 22:43:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 6fe4660f61 Added support for our new \infinity and \plusminus macros, and the
standard \textbar macro (not supported in many versions of LaTeX2HTML).

Added newline to error message.
2001-06-23 03:13:30 +00:00
Fred Drake dce975c820 Update to use the newly separated values $PACKAGE_VERSION and $RELEASE_INFO.
Normalize all HTML attributes to be written as name="value" instead of
name='value'.
2001-06-20 21:31:36 +00:00
Fred Drake f1927a6d80 Added support for new \setreleaseinfo macro.
Normalize all generated HTML so that attribute names come out as
name="value" instead of name='value'.
Changed the target of RFC links to point to the hypertext RFCs at
www.faqs.org instead of the plain text RFCs at www.ietf.org.
2001-06-20 21:29:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 57e52ef076 Implement the \verbatiminput LaTeX macro; this contains more magic than
it should, but only enough that LaTeX2HTML doesn't bite us.
2001-06-15 21:31:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 06a01e84b9 Define a new environment, classdesc*, which can be used to document a
class without providing any information about the constructor.  This
should be used for classes which only exist to act as containers rather
than as factories for instances.
2001-05-11 01:00:30 +00:00
Fred Drake caa79a9ee4 Minor adjustments to HTML for the module synopsis tables. 2001-05-09 15:32:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 056a71da76 The (fairly recent) \textasciicircum is not supported by LaTeX2HTML; add
support for it here.
2001-04-21 05:48:07 +00:00
Fred Drake c2b29d0fee Added support for optional explanation parameter to the \versionadded
macro.

Refactored do_cmd_versionadded() and do_cmd_versionchanged() to do most
of the work in a helper function, with the do_cmd_*() wrappers just supplying
a portion of the replacement text.
2001-04-18 03:11:04 +00:00
Fred Drake e0197bfaeb When forming the <A> tag for a \seepep or \seerfc, make sure we strip
HTML markup from the string used as the title in the TITLE attribute.

This fixes formatting in the "What's New in Python 2.1" document.
2001-04-12 04:03:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 86333606f6 Add corresponding support for the alltt environment to the HTML generator. 2001-04-10 17:13:39 +00:00
Fred Drake c612a14e9e Remove the spurious space of uncertain origin from the output for function,
method and constructor signatures.  Suggested by Peter Funk on the Doc-SIG
mailing list.
2001-03-29 18:24:08 +00:00
Fred Drake ab357ecf7f Label classes and exceptions explicitly in the documentation (for their
*desc environments).
2001-03-02 18:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake afc7ce118e Fix \seepep handling -- correct URL to the online PEP repository on SF is
now generated.  (SF bug #129692.)

Patch from Anthon van der Neut <anthon@mnt.org>:
Work around the removal of content-less paired tags used for name
anchors in some places.  (SF bug #116008.)

Move some class attributes from an artificial SPAN element to otherwise
"useful" elements that are being generated anyway.  Added the class
"versionnote", used for \deprecated, \versionadded, \versionchanged.
2001-01-22 17:33:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 42181dba8e Added a --global-module-index option to specify a (possibly relative) URL
to the Global Module Index for a set of documents.  This is used to include
a reference to the global index from the per-document module indexes, so
that it is just a little easier to find.

(Someone suggested this, but I do not remember who.  Please let me know if
it was you -- thanks!)
2001-01-09 22:02:10 +00:00
Fred Drake b31d36cf01 Fix the bugfix for SF bug #127151 -- make sure we map "previous_page" to
"previous" and "next_page" to "next".  This way the proper icons are found.
2001-01-04 15:16:01 +00:00
Fred Drake d18722b99d Do not cache <img> tags for navigation icons as agressively; this fixes
bug #127151.
2001-01-02 22:08:48 +00:00
Fred Drake de77bc5468 For the title page, insert the package version number before the date.
This makes the title area more like the title are of the top-level
index, and puts the information more people are interested in first.
2000-12-14 18:36:12 +00:00
Fred Drake e463f8e4cd A few small refinements to the table building code. 2000-11-30 07:17:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 5942b439b3 define_module(): Change the "index sub-item" for definitions at module
scope to be " (in module <name>)" instead of
                  " (in <name>)" to be consistent with \withsubitem
                  usage throughout the documentation.  This achieves
                  consistency in indexing throughout the documentation.
2000-10-30 06:24:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 351960de94 Normalize the HTML generated for table headers. 2000-10-26 20:14:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 7497bd3e3d Rename $PYTHON_VERSION to $PACKAGE_VERSION; this is the version number for
whatever is being documented, not necessarily Python.  (These tools are
also used for the How-To documents, etc.)


get_version_text():  New function.  Returns HTML fragment describing the
        software version and documentation date.

bot_navigation_panel():  Include the result of get_version_text() at the
        end, so the information is available on every page.
2000-10-25 16:18:10 +00:00
Fred Drake d04592a46b Rename $PYTHON_VERSION to $PACKAGE_VERSION; this is the version number for
whatever is being documented, not necessarily Python.  (These tools are
also used for the How-To documents, etc.)
2000-10-25 16:15:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 5f84c9b55e $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON: Don't define here; simply defining it overrides a
definition provided by previously loaded configuration code, and
        testing whether it's defined isn't needed since the default was
        false anyway.

get_link_icon():  Add support for $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON_HEIGHT and
        $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON_WIDTH, giving the dimensions of the icon
        being used.  This can make for faster page display.  Both are
        optional.

make_my_titlegraphic():  Fix insertion of the off-site icon link.

do_env_funcdesc():  Remove debugging print.

handle_rfclike_reference():  Remove trailing colon from first line; it
        doesn't really make sense and looks bad if we add an icon to
        mark off-site links.
2000-10-03 06:05:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a40c0702e make_icon_filename(): Convenience function to turn a partial filename
into a usable filename using $ICONSERVER and
                       $IMAGE_TYPE as needed.

get_link_icon():  Function to examine a URL and return the string to use
                  to insert an icon if the link points off-site, if needed
                  and $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON is set.

Adjusted appropriate places to use these new functions.
2000-10-02 14:43:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 38178fd951 use_sans_serif(),
use_italics():  Remove both functions, inlining use_italics() at its
                only call site.

init_myformat():  Uncomment line so that some internal markup does not
                  get generated, since it is not properly removed later.
                  (Fix on aspect of SourceForge bug #114749.)

Modified call to process_commands_wrap_deferred(), removing \code from
the list since it had a bad interaction with other changes in some contexts.
2000-09-22 17:05:04 +00:00
Fred Drake da72b93a01 Add new environments: longtableii, longtableiii, and longtableiv, to
support long tables which might break across page boundaries.  Otherwise
identical to tableii, tableiii, and tableiv.
2000-09-21 15:58:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 02c7082745 make_nav_sectref(): Create more minimal HTML, hanging the class attribute
off an existing anchor tag if available (I think it
                     always is, but am not completely sure).
2000-09-19 15:36:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 1681627ebf Push more of the display control into the style sheet. 2000-09-16 20:40:44 +00:00
Fred Drake aaa238585f When there is a Module Index, make sure the icon actually links to it. 2000-09-14 22:20:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 3cdb89d5ec do_cmd_shortversion(),
do_cmd_setshortversion():  Implementation for new markup.

convert_args():  New helper function.

do_cmd_optional():  Modified to understand when it is called from within
                    a convert_args() invocation.

do_env_funcdesc(),
do_env_funcdescni(),
do_cmd_funcline(),
do_cmd_funclineni(),
handle_classlike_descriptor(),
do_env_methoddesc(),
do_end_methoddescni(),
do_cmd_methodline(),
do_cmd_methodlineni():  Modified to use helper convert_args().

The convert_args() helper and related changes fix the generation of HTML
for the \optional markup, so that bogus </var>...<var> is not generated.
This closes SourceForge bug #113800.
2000-09-14 20:17:23 +00:00
Fred Drake c56817353d Re-wrapped some wide comments.
Fixed Module Index generation.
2000-09-12 20:13:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 48449985f4 \seetitle: New macro for building reference list content. 2000-09-12 17:52:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 643d76d735 Add support for new \pep, \seepep, excclassdesc markup.
Update processing of module synopsis tables (found at the beginning of
most chapters of the library reference) to reflect changes in the
processing pattern of recent versions LaTeX2HMTL.  Requires most
recent change to SynopsisTable.pm.

This does not fix the module index problem.
2000-09-09 06:07:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 75c6cb909c Add support for a filename to record the name of the node in which the
table will be presented.  Accessor methods are used to access the
attribute.
2000-09-09 05:53:41 +00:00
Fred Drake f730fc3e4e Be a little more careful to avoid including style information in the
generated markup.

Don't be careless with the navigation icons!  We should use the blank
icon where there is not anyplace to go for a particular position in the
navigation bar.
2000-08-31 07:19:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 3be2074758 Push some table header formatting to the style sheet; this also helps
separate some of the ties between l2hinit.perl and python.perl.

Revamp the "title page" construction to allow more flexibility.
2000-08-31 06:22:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 241551c16c do_env_cfuncdesc(): Push as much of the generated HTML into one place
as possible for better readability.  Revise a comment.
2000-08-11 20:04:19 +00:00
Fred Drake cb0fc9c2ce fix_font(): Handle one more case for the magical first column of tables. 2000-08-09 13:45:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 3d5a04ab18 do_cmd_moreargs(),
do_cmd_unspecified():  New functions to reflect previously unused markup.

do_cmd_file():  Simplified generated markup to only make use of the
	existing stylesheet.

do_cmd_makevar():  Make the markup more stylesheet-friendly.
2000-08-03 17:25:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 4640e13259 Change as suggested by Peter Funk <pf@artcom-gmbh.de>:
Move around the navigational links on the left-hand side of the navigation
bar to be more like the cursor keys.
2000-07-31 20:13:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 85d14c9d02 Many changes to work with newer versions of LaTeX2HTML. This has been
tested with version 99.2beta8.
2000-07-31 17:53:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 7388f730a3 Support constant as a font name for the first column of a table using the
tableii & friends markup family.
2000-06-28 21:06:08 +00:00
Fred Drake c3fd45fe80 do_cmd_textasciitilde(): New function. 2000-06-15 22:41:48 +00:00
Fred Drake ef4d111b2a do_cmd_seeurl(): New function. 2000-05-09 16:17:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 52e7684af1 do_cmd_versionchanged():
Added support for optional parameter explaining the change
        that was made in the specified version.
2000-05-02 17:37:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 638ae9d0bb Support for the special macros used by the distutils documentation. 2000-04-27 21:27:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 37cc0c0e9f ref_module_index_helper(): Use "my" instead of "local".
get_rfc_url():  New function; returns the URL for a numbered IETF RFC.

do_cmd_rfc():  Use get_rfc_url() instead of hard-coding in the HTML
               formatting.

do_cmd_seerfc():  New function.

do_env_definitions():  Small change to avoid "local".
2000-04-26 18:05:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 0cd6021339 do_cmd_longprogramopt(): New function. 2000-04-11 18:46:59 +00:00
