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
obsolete. These still work just fine, but \declaremodule should be
used instead. The obsolete macros will print a warning on standard
out.
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.
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.
Added note at top, since LaTeX style writers like to force name
changes when someone else makes a change to the style. I'm sending a
note to the author reporting the error and asking for an updated
version.
This cannot be distributed in this form. This will be resolved when I
get a response from Ulf Lindgren.

environment saves the name of the last class described, method and
member descriptions were not picking it up correctly. Thus, many
index entries were described as "( method)" instead of "(FooClass
method)". Multiple entries were collapsed in the index when
methods/members from multiple classes share the same name.
courier font used in Python code. This still isn't *good*, but
makes the width about right in most cases. (Exception: it's now
a little wide in \var words.)
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.
to pypaper.sty.
Added the use of the "avant" package to use AvantGarde for the sans-serif
font instead of the helvetica font loaded by the "times" package.
This is separated so I can build A4 and US Letter sizes without having to
edit files.
Anyone who downloads the source package can also simply edit this file,
which is a lot shorter than the manual.cls file, and easier to find the
appropriate line.
"." cannot be part of the target names either.
Appending a junk char to the end doesn't quite do it, or doesn't seem to at
any rate. Instead, pad the page numbers to always be 3 charaters wide, with
leading zeros.
