Fred Drake e9735ac215 Remove all mentions of the strop module -- it has been pronounced Evil.
(The string "strop" is found in the rexec documentation, but that should
not be changed until strop is actually removed or rexec no longer allows
it.)

Ka-Ping Yee fa004ad36c Show '\011', '\012', and '\015' as '\t', '\n', '\r' in strings.
Switch from octal escapes to hex escapes for other nonprintable characters.

Fred Drake c01f6e691b Use a table to describe the keys to the locale information dictionary;
this is slightly easier to read than the list environment that had been
used.

Fred Drake 977fe96a05 Oops, back out change committed by accident! This is not ready, and
breaks things.

Fred Drake 2ed27d3189 Note that readframes() returns data in linear format, even if the original
is encoded in u-LAW format.  Based on suggestion from Anthony Baxter
<anthony_baxter@users.sourceforge.net>.

This closes bug #122273.

Fred Drake 1491cace2a Several additions and updates based on text from Marc-Andre Lemburg
<mal@lemburg.com>.

Lots of markup reformatting to make it easier for me to read & maintain.

Thomas Wouters f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Fred Drake 85b5683307 Remove extraneous "contains" -- pointed out by Daniel Barclay
<danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Added credit to Martin von Loewis for creating the module and
documentation.

Fred Drake 193338afeb Logical markup.
Convert one bulleted list to a {tableii} environment; the other should
probably be converted, but I haven't decided to what.

Guido van Rossum d028ca989a Fixed and extended the example; the original example contained some
bogus code.

extensions and embedding programs.

Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.

Fred Drake 65b32f7f74 Consistently use \POSIX{} to denote POSIX. There were at least two different
ways to do it previously (not counting module names).
1998-02-09 20:27:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 304474f315 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M".

Fixed reference to the built-in str() function.

Format constant names using \code{}.
