\versionadded,
...
\versionchanged: New macros.
1998-07-27 20:32:33 +00:00
30e52653e1
{tableiv} environment: Four-column table.
...
\lineiv: Row for {tableiv}.
1998-07-24 22:11:29 +00:00
c2aa9fbad9
Remove use of the avant package; Helvetica isn't as pretty, but works for
...
acroread. The problem this solves is likely dependent on font availability,
so keeping things simple is a good solution.
1998-07-24 15:19:38 +00:00
889f53d4e0
Reduce the number of levels in the Table of Contents by one, mostly for the
...
Python Library Reference. The other manuals do not suffer.
This does not affect HOWTO documents.
1998-07-24 13:54:29 +00:00
5420f3321d
\textunderscore: Re-define with a width that's more appropriate for the
...
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.)
1998-07-23 21:41:02 +00:00
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.
1998-07-23 17:50:45 +00:00
2fcadb2ffb
\py@ModSynopsisFilename: New macro; gives names of the .syn file.
1998-07-23 17:36:46 +00:00
1cc6d53f65
\py@ModSynopsisFilename: New macro; gives names of the "current" .syn file.
...
\chapter: Extended, ensures that a pending module synopsis is written out
and then closes the .syn file for the preceeding chapter.
1998-07-23 17:36:14 +00:00
5da5a68325
Fix suggested by Lorenzo M. Catucci <lorenzo@argon.roma2.infn.it> to keep the
...
large letter at the top of each index section with at least the first entry
for that letter.
1998-07-08 21:37:25 +00:00
8e54abe92e
Fix the \kbd definition so it didn't leave the courier face on.
1998-07-01 14:49:25 +00:00
2d4a54da32
Removed loading of shared font stuff from howto.cls and manual.cls, moving it
...
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.
1998-06-22 17:50:34 +00:00
44c413b05e
Make the large letter at the top of each section use the sans-serif font,
...
like any other header.
1998-06-22 17:27:48 +00:00
3bf7865a20
Added {definitions} environment, which has \term to define indivual terms.
...
Similar to {description}.
1998-05-20 17:42:17 +00:00
6df93ef9dd
Added definitions for \developer, \developers, \developersaddress.
...
Ask Guido if you really want to know why. ;-)
1998-05-14 20:56:31 +00:00
ba1700c7bb
Set the right page size in the PDF output.
1998-05-11 20:42:54 +00:00
0cabff904f
\itembreak,
...
\itemjoin,
\kwindex: Revived definitions to support the Python Reference Manual.
1998-05-06 19:36:01 +00:00
2a3ab4fac1
Do better hiding of internal names.
1998-04-28 18:31:50 +00:00
24340ea583
Fixed \code so word wrapping is allowed.
...
Removed some old stuff.
Do better hiding of internal names.
1998-04-28 18:30:34 +00:00
724473fbe5
Load the options from the pypaper.sty file before setting up the "base class"
...
for the manual documents.
1998-04-25 04:12:17 +00:00
b4929a794e
Paper size / font size configuration file.
...
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.
1998-04-25 04:11:27 +00:00
255284b42a
Fix problem for the Library Reference where high-numbered sections of
...
high-numbered chapters took too much space for the section number in the
table of contents. This makes the section number and title not overlap.
1998-04-20 16:55:14 +00:00
d579ed8239
Shift (re-)definition of \theindex to the document classes so that it doesn't
...
break HOWTO documents.
1998-04-17 02:45:41 +00:00
300775d222
Hide \varvars from "public" interface.
1998-04-17 02:17:00 +00:00
a2c2a836d7
Fix the broken PDF links, really this time!
...
"." 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.
1998-04-15 17:50:01 +00:00
a88d681255
Change the form of the name given to each page of the PDF from "page.%d" to
...
"page.%dx"; this works around an acroread bug that causes targets not to be
recognized if their name is a prefix of another target in the file.
1998-04-15 14:53:28 +00:00
4d2996d473
Fix version number.
1998-04-13 20:29:45 +00:00
ee60191d1d
Lighten up tables.
1998-04-11 20:53:03 +00:00
02a8e6b600
Update release number and date.
1998-04-09 14:50:47 +00:00
41565f66b6
Data attributes of objects should not be indexed with trailing parentheses!
1998-04-07 19:32:40 +00:00
0a2eb138e7
Style specification for building *.ind from *.idx. This is needed to avoid
...
wrapping of long lines, which tools/indfix.py doesn't understand, and needs
to to handle collapsing of entries which can share a common emtry and just
be short entries themselves. We get the added benefit of nicer formatting.
1998-04-04 04:18:06 +00:00
47cfd03dff
Increase space between the end of a regexp and the little right floor symbol
...
used as a closing quote. At AMK's request.
1998-04-03 21:22:31 +00:00
537149707b
Removed an obsolete hack that's been commented out for a long time.
...
Added comments to various sections.
1998-04-02 22:33:16 +00:00
2351c80747
\bifuncindex: Fix so entries combine correctly with those of the built-in
...
functions section.
1998-04-02 18:48:32 +00:00
f14e2f8a04
Fix one remaining internal use of \code{} that could use the simpler form.
1998-04-02 16:09:02 +00:00
454a4fb018
Added some comments.
1998-04-01 22:20:14 +00:00
48a16bf6b5
\tableofcontents: Add support for some warning reduction in python.sty.
1998-03-27 05:24:03 +00:00
6cb71491de
Add comments about several of the environments.
...
Cleaned up some problems that caused minor warnings.
Added environments for object methods and members, with non-indexing variants.
This includes reduced use of the indexsubitem setting, allowing more robust
index generation.
Removed some unused definitions.
1998-03-27 05:22:53 +00:00
55730316c9
Don't use the fncychap package for HOWTO documents; appendices break. Still
...
use them for manuals.
1998-03-25 15:41:23 +00:00
c0b2e453ae
Change uses of \pdfinfo and \pdfcatalog to use the new syntax from the
...
latest pdftex. (Which we have here at CNRI.) This makes the PDF targets
work again.
1998-03-25 14:53:43 +00:00
a2be9881f0
Reverting some of the index stuff to work with LaTeX2HTML better.
1998-03-17 06:20:04 +00:00
ae25be2e4d
{classdesc} environment: Index as "Foo (class in foolib)" instead of
...
"Foo (in module foolib)". Is now independent of indexsubitem.
1998-03-16 05:26:10 +00:00
94fac130bb
\regexp{}: Rewritten to look like Freidl's book. Too rip-off?
...
\envvar{}: Bow to font-lock-mode a few times...!
1998-03-12 19:37:03 +00:00
0ee9f727c9
\withsubitem{}: New macro. Change indexsubitem temporarily for another
...
macro. Intended usage:
\withsubitem{(in module foo)}{\ttindex{myfunc()}}
This allows indexing functions from other modules/class/whatnot
without being dependent on the exact expansions of several macros
internal to python.sty. It's also easier to read in the source!
Some new "logical" macros that seem to be useful:
\regexp{}: For regular expressions. To make it easier to keep the appearance
consistent.
\mimetype{}: Don't use \code{}!
\envvar{}: Environment variable. This does some indexing as well.
\character{}: Just a character we want to talk about in the text, but not
a Python constant.
1998-03-12 06:41:40 +00:00
97c73c83ed
Remove \newif relating to index support; no longer needed. Index control
...
is now shared and located solely in python.sty.
1998-03-09 16:40:31 +00:00
b390daf704
Adjust the index support a bit to make it easier to deal with module index.
...
Don't generate the mod???.idx file if it wasn't requested with the new command
\makemodindex.
Change the format of mod???.idx to match that of "normal" .idx files. This
lets us use makeindex for it and not need a special script.
1998-03-09 16:35:36 +00:00
1c8d0e0579
Never, NEVER try to recover a screwed up file by carving a chunk out of an
...
RCS ,v archive! And certainly don't check it back in without testing it.
;-(
"@" becomes "@@" everywhere.
This one *is* tested!
1998-03-07 05:29:15 +00:00
6663b22198
Oops; file copy error somewhere along the way....
1998-03-06 22:33:06 +00:00
ebcb658248
Revise some of the PDF support to get at least preliminary outline support.
...
Rewrite \seemodule (again) to allow an optional argument to support modules
which include an underscore in the names. See example in comments.
1998-03-06 21:25:17 +00:00
dbe132c7ac
LaTeX class for Python HOWTO documents.
1998-03-06 21:21:56 +00:00
55a7cf3ee7
Update documentation release date.
1998-03-05 17:15:26 +00:00
aa54e2db84
Move the change to ending the abstract from python.sty to manual.cls; it
...
is not appropriate for the howto document class.
1998-03-05 16:41:42 +00:00
3455edcbc8
Create the module index only if a conditional is true.
1998-03-04 21:56:42 +00:00
54b03b85f7
Define a new conditional, use this to control creation of module index
...
data file.
1998-03-04 21:52:33 +00:00
28f1391051
Improve separation of document class and python semantic constructs. This
...
will allow us to have a class of smaller documents as well.
1998-03-04 21:47:59 +00:00
6659c30b67
Convert LaTeX support to create a new class of documents. HTML generation
...
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).
This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.
1998-03-03 22:02:19 +00:00
5c4e648731
Updated date for interim documentation release.
1998-02-17 15:41:45 +00:00
8a72a7e344
Use new \authoraddress{}; author's name and address are now separate.
...
Use new \release{}; this is now separate from \date{}.
Use \email{} instead of \code{} for email addresses.
1998-02-12 03:16:04 +00:00
0e823d2abd

Bump up the version number. The date still needs to be set (Guido will
...
have to do that one!), but at least the version will match the release
version. (1.5a2 got skipped for this.)
