Fred Drake d6512808f0 Module/script to parse the reference count data file and make the
information accessible to Python.

When run as a script, just dumps the information back out in the data
format, with functions in sorted order and a blank line between
different functions.

Still need to apply the information somehow.

Fred Drake d3d28d39f8 img_tag(): Tighten up the generated SRC attribute a bit; if the image
relative URL starts with "./", remove "./".
1999-09-23 15:29:45 +00:00
Fred Drake d52879ccdc do_cmd_rfc(): Simplify the generated markup. 1999-09-22 19:58:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 52ea0ce977 Added --image-type option to allow use of either GIF or PNG images.
Job.warning():  New method; use this instead of writing to sys.stderr
                directly.  Ensures warnings are also sent to the log
                file.

Job.log():  New method; write a message to the log file.  Use from
            .message() and .warning().
1999-09-22 19:55:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 191439ab6b Some updates to allow ../tools/mkhowto to add various bits to the
supplemental l2h initialization file it creates and still get all the
right behavior.  In particular, it can change the image type and icon
location and not get inconsistent results.

Some code to help suppress various navigational pages; this might be
interesting when generating HTML to create HTML Help documents, since
the navigation support creates confusing hits in the full text
search.  HTML Help also provides a lot of the navigational
infrastructure, so duplicating it makes it more tedious to use.

Fred Drake e6fb1c4bd3 Added documentation for inet_aton() and inet_ntoa(), from Ben
Gertzfield <che@debian.org> (with minor changes).

1999-09-16 15:50:00 +00:00

1999-08-23 18:57:25 +00:00
Fred Drake abf8a1daa8 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.
