rewrite_descriptor(): Fix bug that dropped the first TEXT node from
...
<description> elements. Add another sanity
check to make sure a special case only becomes
involved for <opcodedesc> and <opcodedescni>
elements.
fixup_paras_helper(): Clean up control flow.
Everywhere that checks node.nodeType==ELEMENT and node.tagName now
just check node.nodeName (nodeName is guaranteed for all node types
and will be special values that don't conflict with GIs for
non-ELEMENT nodes). Simplifies a number of tests and improves
readability in a lot of places.

Change the directory tree walking example to use clearer variable

names, some suggested by Joe Ellsworth.
1999-08-03 21:52:29 +00:00

Re-write in Python for portability. About 30% slower, but who cares?!
1999-08-03 17:54:39 +00:00
82ebc27357
remap_element_names(): Only used for things that the new conversion
...
engine in latex2esis.py can do, so discard it.
paragraph detection & markup: Handle some of the list-like
environments properly, picking up paragraphs inside
list items. (Only changed a few element-sets used for
recognition.)
fixup_refmodindexes_chunk(): Use the right attribute to determine the
module a <ref*modindex/> element is referring to.
convert(): Don't call remap_element_names(); it was removed.
1999-08-03 15:32:48 +00:00
2f6ec9ca81
The new conversion engine supports more of the table re-writing than
...
the old one, so use it.
1999-08-03 15:27:37 +00:00
32bc45f737
Removed PyMapping_Clear() -- it was wishful thinking and serves no
...
great purpose.
1999-08-02 20:49:37 +00:00

Use the mksourcepgk script instead of mktarball.sh.
1999-08-02 20:20:14 +00:00
9ff3a6a6e7
Remove obsolete version of script.
1999-08-02 20:19:42 +00:00
9f2b42080a
Re-implementation of mktarball.sh as a more portable Python script;
...
with a more descriptive name.
Allow creation of multiple archive formats with a single pass; useful
in this case since it uses a fresh export/checkout from CVS to ensure
that the tree is "clean" (no build turds, saved files, &c). Use --all
to create all supported formats.
1999-08-02 20:19:17 +00:00
080c1b5af6
bwrite(), ewrite(): Helpers for diagnostic output; essentially the
...
same as sys.stderr.write(), but bwrite() will make it
bold if stderr is a tty (for visibility).
Use these everywhere instead of accessing
sys.stderr.write() directly.
find_all_child_elements(): Find all elements by type name that are
immediate children of another.
cleanup_synopses(): Receive both the document and fragment objects as
parameters; if only the document is passed, synopsis
information is never found since it's in the fragment!
build_para(): Add a chunk of code to ensure that a newline always
follows the </para> end-tag. Not really important, but
makes presentation consistent for authoring/
maintenance.
fixup_bifuncindexes_chunk(): Use find_all_child_elements() instead of
find_all_elements() so we don't work with too many
levels at once; that could cause DOM exceptions with
the <elem>.removeChild() method.
1999-08-02 14:46:15 +00:00
4fbdf9779c
Mostly minor changes.
...
Removed some obsolete commented-out code.
Merged BaseConversion into Conversion since there's only one
conversion process now.
Remove push/pop of output stream; it's no longer needed.
1999-08-02 14:35:25 +00:00

This doesn't need to do nearly as much for the new conversion, so

A few small improvements to the conversion.

very interesting.

96e4a06fa6
Massive changes.
...
Separate the Conversion class into a base and a subclass; the subclass
is pretty minimal but the separation is useful for....
NewConversion: New class that implements a somewhat different
approach to the conversion. This uses a table of
instances (rather than tuples) that have more
information than the tuples used for the older
conversion procedure. This allows a lot more control
over the conversion, and it seems to be pretty
stable.
TableEntry,
Parameter: New classes that are used to build the conversion
specification used by NewConversion.
TableParser: xmllib.XMLParser subclass that builds a conversion
specification from an XML document.
load_table(): Convenience function that loads a table from a file.
main(): Added flags --new and --old; these select which conversion is
used. The default is --new.
Several fixes have been made in the old conversion as well; these were
done before writing & switching to the new conversion, and should be
archived.
The next checkin of this file will discard the old conversion; is is
kept in this checkin to allow it to be retrieved if needed, and to
avoid lossing the bugfixes that have been made to it in the interim.
1999-07-29 22:22:13 +00:00

Minor updates.

Some minor cleanup.
1999-07-29 22:03:52 +00:00
bc2285eb60
Conversion specification, used by a new path through latex2esis.py.
...
The specific markup conversion is coded here instead of an even more
cryptic table in the code of latex2esis.py.
1999-07-29 22:03:11 +00:00
478a265057
Minor update.
1999-07-29 22:01:39 +00:00
c35367e439
Change an {\em ...} to \var{...} and a {\bf ...} to \program{...} (the
...
new markup makes sense in context).
These allow the SGML/XML conversion updates to work, & should not have
still been in there anyway.
1999-07-29 13:56:41 +00:00

Add support for bzip2 compression.

New target: distfiles, create all distribution archives, regardless of
archive format. (Individual targets remain for each archive format.)
1999-07-27 16:30:59 +00:00

Add support for bzip2 using --bzip2.

Make the default target xml instead of sgml.
1999-07-22 13:57:12 +00:00
7dbde51f97
Make the default target xml instead of sgml.
...
Use a temporary file to pass results from latex2esis.py to
docfixer.py; this makes for better error detection by make (if the
first pipeline stage fails, make wasn't catching it).

1999-07-07 14:04:38 +00:00
363d67c2e6
Move some misc. comments from the example section to the main section.
...
Use the lowercase versions of the method names in the example, since
that's what's documented (Greg Stein's suggestion). Add a blank line
after the import line for clarity.
1999-07-07 13:42:56 +00:00

Move the setting for secnumdepth to the document classes; make the numbering
...
for the manual class go one deeper than it previously did (\subsection
entries will now be numbered); no change for howto documents.
This makes it easier to refer precisely to smaller sections using \ref.
1999-06-29 18:15:59 +00:00

Clarify the example by explicitly importing the fcntl module -- this
...
avoid being fooled into thinking that fcntl and FCNTL are the same
thing -- they aren't! (fcntl is the extension, FCNTL.py is h2py
output that defines all the constants).
(XXX The example is still weird -- I think there's a more portable way
to do locking now. That's for someone else to fix...)

\declaremodule: Make this more robust. Only attempt to add an index

make_index_entry(): Remove. Not only did this override the
...
l2hinit.perl version of the function (which
overrode a version in latex2html), but
do_cmd_index() was overridden. Since
do_cmd_index() was the only caller, we can trash
this.
define_indexing_macro(): New function used during setup to support
more dynamic dispatch for indexing.
process_index_macros(): New function; implement dynamic dispatching
of indexing support functions, allowing many
targets used in indexing to be shared by
multiple index entries. I.e., something like
\index{foo}\bifuncindex{bar} can now share a
single target anchor.
These indexing changes reduce the amount of clutter in the generated
HTML files. In the reference manual, this cuts the number of targets
by 44%. Targets are less affected when generated by environments
rather than macros.

General adjustments to the table* environments, including using
<thead> and <tbody>. Attempt to adjust the vertical alignment of the
table cells so that the baseline of the first cell matches the
baseline of the remaining cells: When the first cell is small and the
second cell of the same row is multi-line, the first cell was
vertically centered by default. Specifying valign=baseline fixes the
problem on IE, but Netscape seems to ignore both valign=top and
valign=baseline (even though valign is NS's fault!). Make the
horizontal alignment of 'p' columns left instead of center (for the
headings).

Add some (commented out) macros to change the page size to the size of
...
typical published manuals, so people can more easily see what they're
really asking for. ;-)
Revise the verbatim environment: simple implementation, but more
compatible if a document also add \usepackage{verbatim} at the
beginning.
Declare \modindex, \bimodindex, \exmodindex, and \stmodindex

used instead. The obsolete macros will print a warning on standard
out.

Added section for MimeWriter, contributed by Christopher Petrilli
...
<petrilli@amber.org>.
This spells the end of another whole section in the undoc chapter!
1999-02-12 19:26:09 +00:00

Added entry for MimeWriter module.
1999-02-12 19:24:02 +00:00

Make table headers the same color as the navigation bars so they stand
...
out a little better.
Make sure the boxes for the last column of tables always get drawn;
these are often left empty of content when used as a "Notes" column.
They look a little better this way.
1999-02-12 19:23:17 +00:00
7a9ed71e95
Moved the navigation-bar background color to a variable.
1999-02-12 19:00:38 +00:00
26b698fa4d
Document <complex #>.conjugate().
1999-02-12 18:27:31 +00:00
15988fdbbb
Documented __complex__(), made sure all the discipline names hit the
...
index.
1999-02-12 18:14:57 +00:00
2e1ee3eb19
Fix up some routines to coordinate the "indexsubitem" stuff so that
...
the subitem text is updated correctly when each module section is
processed.
Print [<modulename>] when we start on \declaremodule so we can more
easily track progress during the library reference.
1999-02-10 21:17:04 +00:00
72e5a901c2
Remove unnecessary <p> from top navigation bar.
1999-02-10 17:35:41 +00:00

Revert previous change; there's a better way to do it.
1999-02-10 17:08:00 +00:00
95474f9696
Change the navigation bar to be a little prettier and more consistent
...
with the python.org style.
1999-02-09 18:45:50 +00:00
446ab75fcf
New blank icon to match the others in size & color, with without any
...
symbol on it.
1999-02-09 18:27:21 +00:00

do_cmd_maketitle(): Small nit in creating the "title page".
1999-02-09 16:03:31 +00:00
1a4c5392b5
Back out some of the fine tuning; something in all that interacted
...
badly in practice and botched the whole thing. Wasn't obvious when
looking at the local effects (which worked), but completely broke
entire pages. ;-(
1999-02-09 15:31:52 +00:00

0256c1f453
Document splitdrive().
...
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs. "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.
1999-02-03 19:24:44 +00:00
0c9608cf1b
Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the
...
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX). Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it. Adapted the doc strings too.
1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00

Remove three items.

Added posixpath, winsound.
1999-02-02 18:59:58 +00:00
a9b9bf96fe
Change this to be os.path.
...
Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).
1999-02-02 18:58:33 +00:00
bb79438d26
This seems to fix a problem with targeting from the indexes.
1999-02-02 18:57:12 +00:00
2116d983bf
Make \versionadded and \versionchanged less prominant -- neither bold
...
nor a separate paragraph.
1999-02-02 18:02:48 +00:00
d0bceeeb59
Move \versionadded macros to end of descriptions.
1999-02-02 18:00:40 +00:00

Clarified (hopefully :-) the documentation of elements and attributes
variables.
1999-02-02 17:55:12 +00:00

Take out just about everything and refer the reader to the os module.
1999-02-01 20:23:02 +00:00

Make the text generic, and call it os.path instead of posixpath.
1999-02-01 20:20:39 +00:00
59d8b73cef
Remove all references to posixpath; only refer to os.path.

Updated comments on version of XML package needed.
1999-01-29 22:35:23 +00:00

the DTD.
1999-01-29 21:35:50 +00:00
3a7ff998ac
fixup_descriptors(): Change the way we look for descriptor nodes;
...
this takes 5 minutes off the conversion of the whole tree by
reducing the number of tree-traversals from 14 to 1.
1999-01-29 21:31:12 +00:00
666e60095b
Added the Doc/sgml/ directory to the tarball.
1999-01-29 21:22:55 +00:00
cb65781d93
Rewrite code that converts the little descriptor environments to build
...
the right <signature>s and <description>. This seems to work a lot
better now!
1999-01-29 20:55:07 +00:00
75930b31e2
Added table entries for \funcline and \funclineni.
1999-01-29 20:09:27 +00:00

f339632da0
Define a general entity "&version;" that can be used as the current major

version of the Python interpreter. This is \version in the LaTeX format
of the documentation.
1999-01-29 16:42:37 +00:00
fdfd50f815
Convert <version> to &version;.
1999-01-29 16:29:25 +00:00

The OASIS Exchange table model public text.
1999-01-29 15:57:31 +00:00
7dab6affba
Update the docstring.
...
Lots of changes to get the paragraph marking to work, and not go into
an infinite recursion.
Start to rationalize markup of method signatures; not complete.
find_all_elements(): similar to getElementsByTagName(), but operates
on the not-quite-legal fragments we deal with here.
Simplifies several individual transforms.
fixup_sectionauthors(): Convert \sectionauthor items to <author> just
after the <section>'s <title>.
1999-01-28 23:59:58 +00:00
3f3b09657f
Added table entries for \methodline, \methodlineni.
1999-01-28 23:49:37 +00:00

Add the info "dir" fragment to the info tarball.
1999-01-27 18:50:21 +00:00
8d7919d754
Fragment of an info "dir" file for the Python documentation.
1999-01-27 18:49:44 +00:00
ffc4811a40
Simplify slightly.
1999-01-27 18:40:36 +00:00

Don't build info for the Macintosh module reference by default; it
...
doesn't do well.
1999-01-27 18:30:16 +00:00
aa2aea0e79
\py@linkToName: New macro to consolidate support for most internal
...
hyperlinking in the PDF version. This also allows many of the
macros that do this stuff to be a good bit more readable.
Takes the target name and link content as parameters.
Use \py@linkToName for all internal links.
1999-01-27 17:37:36 +00:00
580f4ab5dc
Added the files for the repr and ConfigParser modules.
1999-01-27 17:21:09 +00:00
9d814c6805
Document the repr module. This removes the entire "Code objects and
...
files, debugger etc." section from "Undocumented Modules"!
1999-01-27 17:20:33 +00:00
da452bf6a7
Don't say that the module defines the "following functions" and then
...
only describe one; say "following function" instead!
Merge the two one-sentence paragraphs into a single paragraph, so it
doesn't look too stupid.
1999-01-27 15:48:23 +00:00
ebe2a12de8
Incorporate changes for patched version of ConfigParser.
1999-01-26 21:49:05 +00:00
9f253dc3ff
\py@modindex: Format the index entry for the module index more like
...
that used in the "normal" index. No visual difference, but
more easily processed by helper scripts.
1999-01-26 19:23:09 +00:00
bc866ce2e3
Documentation for the ConfigParser module, by Christopher G. Petrilli

9700e9becc
Document the default for tabsize in expandtabs().
1999-01-25 22:31:53 +00:00
a49a4eabbf
Add "term" to AUTOCLOSE.
1999-01-22 22:48:24 +00:00
d1dbf633ed
Header for PyObject_DelItem() mentioned non-existing 3rd argument.
1999-01-22 20:10:49 +00:00
43278f01dc
convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of
...
general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted
when SGML is generated. This can be used to tell the markup
generator to drop stuff like </para>. Note that it needs to
be possible for the closing tag to *always* be omitted for it
to be included in "autoclose".
main(): Added command-line option "-a" / "--autoclose" to set the
list of general identifiers passed to the convert() function
as the "autoclose" parameter. The list may only be specified
once (not additive) and GIs should be comma-separated. The
default list includes only "para".
1999-01-20 20:35:05 +00:00
0a5b8de5e2
Modified the "sgml" and "xml" targets to stop if the sub-makes fail in
...
any subdirectory; don't continue with remaining subdirs.
Added "api", "ext", "lib", "mac", "ref", and "tut" targets to only do
submakes in those directories. This is just a lot easier to use than
to cd into the subdir and use make.rules directly.
1999-01-20 17:26:56 +00:00
19a0dba342
Add caveat on partial dependence on the "cl" module, only available on
...
IRIX systems.
1999-01-20 16:26:09 +00:00
9ea3e36419
Move the jpeg module to the SGI section; it is dependent on the "cl"
...
module available on IRIX.
1999-01-20 15:55:20 +00:00
4259f0db04
create_module_info(): If there's a \moduleauthor, move it to an
...
<author> inside the <moduleinfo> element.
Fix problems with paragraph identification.
1999-01-19 23:09:31 +00:00
36dfe58694
isnmtoken(), istoken(): Fix to ensure the regex has to match the
...
entire attribute value.
Add ability to save list of "empty" elements to a file -- enabled by
constant in the code.
1999-01-19 23:03:04 +00:00
2664db9f76
handle_labels(): Fix problem for document fragments containing more
...
than one "root" that prevented all the <label id=...> items
from being promoted to id attributes on the enclosing chapter/
section/... properly.
1999-01-19 21:46:48 +00:00
a7998f650a
Revised comments on null bytes in pattern string.
...
Removed "New" from module synopsis.
1999-01-19 20:00:08 +00:00
6ffa445832
Fix second description of handling 2-digit years (last item in
...
introductory text).
1999-01-19 19:35:18 +00:00
d6ced7d199
convert(): Change the element name remapping to convert <refmodule>
...
to <module link>.
1999-01-19 17:11:23 +00:00
f82e4ab617
format_attrs(): Attempt a bit more minimization for SGML output.
1999-01-19 17:10:31 +00:00
9bbdce5945
add_module_idx(), add_idx_hook():
...
Change the message printed before running buildindex.py;
"Doing the index..." wasn't clear and could be misinterpreted
with an inappropriate mindset. ;-)
1999-01-19 16:30:10 +00:00
7eca8e5017
Fix typo spotted by Jeff MacDonald <jam@ans.net>.
1999-01-18 15:46:02 +00:00
589bc63e84
Add a "tarball" target.
1999-01-14 22:35:05 +00:00
6038f54b74
Adjust so that we are no longer using special entities for well-known
...
names. These are too much of a pain for occaissional authors.
1999-01-14 21:44:56 +00:00
53610caee2
for method getaddrlist(): Added a note clarifying that all named
...
headers and their continuation lines are parsed.
1999-01-14 21:26:54 +00:00
3effeedad3
Shorten the name of the <rfc> "number" attribute to "num".
1999-01-14 21:18:52 +00:00
d24167baf2
Make <rfc> no longer an empty element but a container. The text
...
currently generated by the LaTeX and LaTeX2HTML processes is generated
here as well, making it more flexible in the SGML version.
Reduce the <args> element so that <optional> goes away; just use
square brackets to indicate what's optional. This makes it easier to
read than the LaTeX, and the processor can do any checking it needs to
in order to make sure it's legit. Possible shortcoming: DSSSL
processors may need more explicit markup. Can probably hack around it
for this case, but we'll see.
1999-01-14 21:18:03 +00:00
f8ebb5521d
Several new functions to re-write tables to be at least partly
...
conformant with the OASIS Exchange model. There's a little more
massage left to do, but not much.
1999-01-14 19:45:38 +00:00
a50a1df588
Added clean and clobber targets.
1999-01-14 18:26:23 +00:00

Update to the latest version of Michael Ernst's script.
1999-01-14 18:17:07 +00:00

"Driver" makefile to convert all documents to SGML or XML at once.
1999-01-14 18:13:59 +00:00
7727416686
Add usage of the "driver" Makefile.
1999-01-14 18:12:33 +00:00
9d1c3b565f
Elaborate a comment on the format of the table that drives the
...
conversion.
1999-01-14 18:10:09 +00:00
d7acf02290
Adjustments to allow elements with subelements as parameters. This is
...
used to deal with the table headings and entries.
An additional flag in the element table is used to indicate elements
which have no "general" content, but which do have subelement
content. These must be flagged distinctly from empty elements.
Currently used for \lineii, \lineiii, and \lineiv.
1999-01-14 17:38:12 +00:00
79cbadc194
Added fixinfo.el to the list of dependencies.

Update the comments on info files.
1999-01-13 23:02:38 +00:00
e36e4e6778
Use \refmodule when we say "use the XXX module instead".
...
For the whatsound module, point to sndhdr.
1999-01-13 17:11:52 +00:00
da94374a86
\seemodule: Fix so that each \seemodule entry gets its own paragraph,
...
so they don't get run together when there's no blank line
between them in the source. The HTML conversion already did
the right thing.
\refmodule: Refer to a module, using a hyperlink in the PDF version.
Visually the same as \module.
1999-01-13 17:09:06 +00:00
2581704dfa
do_cmd_refmodule(): New function to support new \refmodule macro.
1999-01-13 17:06:34 +00:00
8d43a2937b
Added a few items.
1999-01-12 21:31:16 +00:00

Fix the HTML tarball target to generate the HTML if needed instead of
...
bombing.
1999-01-12 20:32:39 +00:00
dd7610cac9
Bump the date. Seems like fun. ;-)
1999-01-12 19:51:03 +00:00
701f10fbea
Simplify command that extracts the number of pages from a PostScript
...
file; use "grep -c" instead of "grep | wc -l | cut ... | tr ...".
1999-01-12 19:28:41 +00:00
39cddb7439
Added \modulesynopsis.
1999-01-12 19:22:11 +00:00
03dd3efd5a
<writer>.send_paragraph(): Clarify what needs to be done by this
...
method and what it should not do. (Specifically: handling
breaking of last line of preceeding paragraph.)
1999-01-12 18:33:47 +00:00
5a0ca4e55c
do_cmd_methodline(): Fixed reference to method name when generating
...
the output HTML.
1999-01-12 04:16:51 +00:00
4856d01797
Removed a lot of unnecessary comment markers which cause unexplained
...
numbers to appear in the HTML version of the manual.
1999-01-12 04:15:20 +00:00
8e2c9457a2
output_body(): For <address> elements, just skip, since they're
...
always part of the page trailer.
1999-01-11 22:30:34 +00:00
bb3b0028ba
Patches describing the statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions. Additional
...
text about large file support.
All new text by Steve Clift <clift@mail.anacapa.net>, with only minor

next_argument_id(): Removed; no longer used.
next_argument(): Doesn't use next_argument_id(), just does the work.

place that used them now does the (trivial) work directly.
Lots of little changes so we never have to pass around $br_id values
all over the place. The only places they're used now new IDs are
generated as needed.

Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that

takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an

in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?

Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once;
...
with examples and workaround. This keeps coming up, and I believe
that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion. While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.

Variant of AMK's patch to produce text versions of HOWTO documents.

build_html(): Simplify, so there's only one version of the latex2html

command line.
l2hoption(): Convenience function, to write out an option to the aux. init.
file only if set.
Added --iconserver option to set the $ICONSERVER variable in latex2html; this
requires the use of an auxillary init. file since this can't be initialized
using a standard latex2html command-line option. So the aux. init. file is
used for just about all the special options since it has to be written anyway
when $ICONSERVER needs to be set.

a488f30627
Lots of new stuff for "module synopsis support." Public interface consists
...
of three macros, one which replaces some of the current conventions used in
the module sections:
\declaremodule: Requires two parameters: module type (standard, builtin,
extension), and the module name. An optional parameter should be
given as the basis for the module's "key" used for linking to or
referencing the section. The "key" should only be given if the
module's name contains underscores, and should be the name with the
underscore's stripped. This should be the first thing after the
\section used to introduce the module.
\modulesynopsis: Requires a single parameter: a short, one-liner
description of the module that can be used as part of the chapter
introduction. This should probably be placed just after the
\declaremodule, but may be placed anywhere in the same section.
\localmoduletable: No parameters. If a .syn file exists for the current
chapter (or for the entire document in howto docs), a synopsistable
is created with the contents loaded from the .syn file.
Some re-organization due to module synopsis support.
Some \def's changed to \newcommand's.

Added a section to the chapter on modules, describing the package system.

The text is almost completely from GvR's essay on packages; some
introductory paragraphs have been removed, and everything after the

paragraph has been added after the sample package layout stating that there
must be a file called__init__.py in a directory to make it a package.

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.
