\refmodindex{}: New macro, used to make an index reference to a module which

Added some module references to the index.

Fred Drake
207e57b617
Added definitions of \refbimodindex{} and \refstmodindex{}, which should be
...
used to add index references for built-in and standard modules, respectively.
Modified \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} to make the page number bold, to
allow the defining instance of a module to stand out in the index.
Check-ins which fix improper use of \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} will be
made as fixes are applied. Misc. indexing updates will occur as a side
effect in some cases.
1997-12-15 21:37:45 +00:00

At the top, made it clear that the \bimodindex{} and \stmodindex{} are only

used for the defining entry for the module, not every index reference.

Separated the definitions of ntohs(), ntohl(), htons(), htonl(). Separate

clean_key(): Override the standard LaTeX2HTML clean_key() to remove a
leading HTML tag, if present. This broke the indexes for the library

Some reorganization (all limit operations & constants together, and all usage

functions and constants together).

New WML file, this time with working Title and Author tags, and

Make examples consistently use 4-space indentation.
...
Use \file{} for file names.
Prefer \code{blat} and \emph{blat} to {\tt blat} and {\em blat}; this matches
current style in the Library Reference a bit better.
Made the example startup banner current. The version number should be
bumped before the next release.

Fixed unresolved reference problem; this module wasn't \label{}ed.

Remove spurious underscore following book title. Added specific reference to
a Win32 networking book.
Changed \indexsubitem from (in module SocketServer) to (SocketServer protocol),

make_str_index_entry(): New function. Similar to make_index_entry(), but
...
includes the string in the returned value instead of the dummy
filler character.
add_idx(): Override the latex2html function of the same name; this gets
the anchor properly embedded in the <dt> element, so the index
works in Grail too.

The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions
...
to use the opcodedesc environment.
Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.
Fixed a typo: "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.
Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent. Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me. It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project. Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.
1997-12-03 04:06:57 +00:00

Added environment for defining PyVM instructions. This is only used in
...
the libdis.tex file I'm about to check in.
I'm not sure this is really an optimal solution yet, but it may be the best
alternative. It avoids describing the instructions as either data items or
functions.
This change was discussed with Guido. (Guido: Take a look at the LaTeX
output for this; if this is reasonable I'll go ahead and update the perl
code in myformat.perl to match.)

Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally
