a traceback message. I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output. This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3. The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.
Allows the lineno fixup code to remain simple and not have to deal with
multibyte codings.
* Add an assertion to that effect.
* Remove the XXX comment on the subject.
This patch includes test cases and documentation updates, as well as NEWS file
updates.
This patch also updates the sre modules so that they don't import the string
module, breaking direct circular imports.
happen in 2.3, but nobody noticed it still was getting generated (the
warning was disabled by default). OverflowWarning and
PyExc_OverflowWarning should be removed for 2.5, and left notes all over
saying so.
* Perform the code length check earlier.
* Eliminate the extra PyMem_Free() upon hitting an EXTENDED_ARG.
* Assert that the NOP count used in jump retargeting matches the NOPs
eliminated in the final step.
* Add an XXX note to indicate that more work is being to done to
handle linenotab with intervals > 255.
* Make a pass to eliminate NOPs. Produce code that is more readable,
more compact, and a tiny bit faster. Makes the peepholer more flexible
in the scope of allowable transformations.
* With Guido's okay, bumped up the magic number so that this patch gets
widely exercised before the alpha goes out.

Now joining string subtypes will always return a string.
Formerly, if there were only one item, it was returned unchanged.
NamedTemporaryFile (which can't work for this function's purposes on
Windows). Leaving temp files behind wasn't a great idea either, though,
so try to clean up. At least the test suite no longer leaves any of
these guys behind now.
in this section is new in 2.4, and that's all mentioned already in
versionadded{} thingies at the end of the section. It hurts readability
to have them after every line <wink>.
docstrings toward being a lot shorter, and telling the whole truth in
the manual instead. This change is an example: the manual has detailed
explanations of the option names now, so it's Bad to repeat them in
the docstring (two detailed descriptions are certain to get out of synch).
Just listing the names has memory-jogging benefits, though, so that's
still helpful in the docstring.
- Test filenames sometimes had trailing .pyc or .pyo sufixes
(when module __file__ did).
- Trailing spaces spaces in expected output were dropped.
New default failure format:
- Separation of examples from file info makes examples easier to see
- More vertical separation, improving readability
- Emacs-recognized file info (also closer to Python exception format)
