Change the table in the pyexpat.errors module to a series of datadesc
...
elements (since the table was pretty screwed up); this is how it is done
elsewhere in the manual.
I could use some help creating descriptions of the specific error
identifiers (input conditions that lead to each error, etc.).

Give ConfigParser the capability to set as well as read options, and to write
...
a representation of the configuration state in .ini format that can be read
back in by a future read() call. Thus this class is now a back end
for .ini editors as well as parsers.
This patch is complete and tested, but exposes a bug in the ConfigParser
implementation which I have not yet fixed. Because case information is
discarded during parsing, the output of write() has its case smashed.
I wrote this for a SourceForge interface script called forgetool.
Documentation for the new entry points included.

Several small changes, mostly to the markup, to improve consistency and

internal hyperlinking. Move some things around, also for consistency
with other modules ("See also" stuff tends to live at the \section level,

This patch implements relative-path semantics for the "source" facility resembling
those of cpp(1), documents the change, and improves the shlex test main to

in the existing docs.
