Some updates to allow ../tools/mkhowto to add various bits to the

supplemental l2h initialization file it creates and still get all the
right behavior. In particular, it can change the image type and icon
location and not get inconsistent results.
Some code to help suppress various navigational pages; this might be
interesting when generating HTML to create HTML Help documents, since
the navigation support creates confusing hits in the full text
search. HTML Help also provides a lot of the navigational
infrastructure, so duplicating it makes it more tedious to use.

rewrite_descriptor(): Fix bug that dropped the first TEXT node from

<description> elements. Add another sanity
check to make sure a special case only becomes
involved for <opcodedesc> and <opcodedescni>
elements.
fixup_paras_helper(): Clean up control flow.
Everywhere that checks node.nodeType==ELEMENT and node.tagName now
just check node.nodeName (nodeName is guaranteed for all node types
and will be special values that don't conflict with GIs for
non-ELEMENT nodes). Simplifies a number of tests and improves
readability in a lot of places.

remap_element_names(): Only used for things that the new conversion

engine in latex2esis.py can do, so discard it.
paragraph detection & markup: Handle some of the list-like
environments properly, picking up paragraphs inside
list items. (Only changed a few element-sets used for
recognition.)
fixup_refmodindexes_chunk(): Use the right attribute to determine the
module a <ref*modindex/> element is referring to.

Re-implementation of mktarball.sh as a more portable Python script;
...
with a more descriptive name.
Allow creation of multiple archive formats with a single pass; useful
in this case since it uses a fresh export/checkout from CVS to ensure
that the tree is "clean" (no build turds, saved files, &c). Use --all
to create all supported formats.

Fred Drake
080c1b5af6
bwrite(), ewrite(): Helpers for diagnostic output; essentially the
...
same as sys.stderr.write(), but bwrite() will make it
bold if stderr is a tty (for visibility).
Use these everywhere instead of accessing
sys.stderr.write() directly.
find_all_child_elements(): Find all elements by type name that are
immediate children of another.
cleanup_synopses(): Receive both the document and fragment objects as
parameters; if only the document is passed, synopsis
information is never found since it's in the fragment!
build_para(): Add a chunk of code to ensure that a newline always
follows the </para> end-tag. Not really important, but
makes presentation consistent for authoring/
maintenance.
fixup_bifuncindexes_chunk(): Use find_all_child_elements() instead of
find_all_elements() so we don't work with too many
levels at once; that could cause DOM exceptions with
the <elem>.removeChild() method.

Fred Drake

Massive changes.
...
Separate the Conversion class into a base and a subclass; the subclass
is pretty minimal but the separation is useful for....
NewConversion: New class that implements a somewhat different
approach to the conversion. This uses a table of
instances (rather than tuples) that have more
information than the tuples used for the older
conversion procedure. This allows a lot more control
over the conversion, and it seems to be pretty
stable.
TableEntry,
Parameter: New classes that are used to build the conversion
specification used by NewConversion.
TableParser: xmllib.XMLParser subclass that builds a conversion
specification from an XML document.
load_table(): Convenience function that loads a table from a file.
main(): Added flags --new and --old; these select which conversion is
used. The default is --new.
Several fixes have been made in the old conversion as well; these were
done before writing & switching to the new conversion, and should be
archived.
The next checkin of this file will discard the old conversion; is is
kept in this checkin to allow it to be retrieved if needed, and to
avoid lossing the bugfixes that have been made to it in the interim.

Change an {\em ...} to \var{...} and a {\bf ...} to \program{...} (the

make_index_entry(): Remove. Not only did this override the
...
l2hinit.perl version of the function (which
overrode a version in latex2html), but
do_cmd_index() was overridden. Since
do_cmd_index() was the only caller, we can trash
this.
define_indexing_macro(): New function used during setup to support
more dynamic dispatch for indexing.
process_index_macros(): New function; implement dynamic dispatching
of indexing support functions, allowing many
targets used in indexing to be shared by
multiple index entries. I.e., something like
\index{foo}\bifuncindex{bar} can now share a
single target anchor.
These indexing changes reduce the amount of clutter in the generated
HTML files. In the reference manual, this cuts the number of targets
by 44%. Targets are less affected when generated by environments
rather than macros.

do_cmd_seetext(): Clean up so we get proper nesting of <div>s. This
...
fixes a rendering problem on IE5.
General adjustments to the table* environments, including using
<thead> and <tbody>. Attempt to adjust the vertical alignment of the
table cells so that the baseline of the first cell matches the
baseline of the remaining cells: When the first cell is small and the
second cell of the same row is multi-line, the first cell was
vertically centered by default. Specifying valign=baseline fixes the
problem on IE, but Netscape seems to ignore both valign=top and
valign=baseline (even though valign is NS's fault!). Make the
horizontal alignment of 'p' columns left instead of center (for the
headings).

Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the

convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of

general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted

as the "autoclose" parameter. The list may only be specified
once (not additive) and GIs should be comma-separated. The
default list includes only "para".

Make <rfc> no longer an empty element but a container. The text

Reduce the <args> element so that <optional> goes away; just use
square brackets to indicate what's optional. This makes it easier to
read than the LaTeX, and the processor can do any checking it needs to
in order to make sure it's legit. Possible shortcoming: DSSSL
processors may need more explicit markup. Can probably hack around it
for this case, but we'll see.

Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that
...
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
when the main line of the program resumes execution. Is this guaranteed
in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?
Also fixed a typo.

Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once;

that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion. While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.

build_html(): Simplify, so there's only one version of the latex2html

l2hoption(): Convenience function, to write out an option to the aux. init.

Added --iconserver option to set the $ICONSERVER variable in latex2html; this
requires the use of an auxillary init. file since this can't be initialized
using a standard latex2html command-line option. So the aux. init. file is
used for just about all the special options since it has to be written anyway
when $ICONSERVER needs to be set.

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.

From: Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.eclipse.it>
To: Python List <python-list@cwi.nl>
Subject: Typos in ref manual
Hi all,
browsing the reference manual I noticed what seem two small errors:
a) in the list of keywords (section 2.3.1) 'exec' is missing
b) in the Operator Precedence table (5.12) the comparison operators
include '=', but probably '==' was intended.
Hope this help,
lele.

In package Override, use the getcwd() function from the Cwd module instead of

the one from Override.pm (part of latex2html).
Absolutize the TEXINPUTS environment variable, since we can't count on

For some of the "big" targets, force things to happen in the "right"

files in the paper-a4/ directory.
Probably still needs some restructuring.

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.

Don't use \samp when \code is better.
...
Consistently use ' instead of ": this conforms to my unofficial stance that
constants should be presented using the repr() whenever it makes sense. This
isn't because I think repr() is the greatest thing since spam, just that it's
an easy to adopt consistency standard. (It also holds no new surprises!)

Remove option to strip out <tt>...</tt> from index entry text; this is now

left to the buildindex.py script.
