Remove a spurious space from the title.
1998-02-11 22:31:54 +00:00

Oops, missed a \POSIX{} in an index entry.
1998-02-09 22:12:28 +00:00

Add some index entries; switch to logical markup.
1998-02-09 20:52:48 +00:00
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

Do the right magic to make \ABC{} get sorted correctly in the index.

31c4ed75fc
Remove commented-out \itembreak.
1998-02-06 22:26:04 +00:00
c660233cfb
Update two of the \indexsubitem values to use singular rather than plural form

of "variable": each individual variable should be identified as a single
variable and not a collection in the index.
1998-02-06 22:19:23 +00:00
8e1e68de49
Add ref to errno module, and change ref to posix.error to os.error.

1998-01-29 22:03:41 +00:00
02505e4850
New version of xmllib from Sjoerd.
...
The main incompatibility is that the error reporting method is now
called as
parser.syntax_error(msg)
instead of
parser.syntax_error(lineno, msg)
This new version also has some code to deal with the <?xml?> and
<!DOCTYPE> tags at the start of an XML document.
The documentation has been updated, and a small test module has been
created.
1998-01-29 14:55:24 +00:00
7570669a08
Add a note explaining that multiplying a sequence with a negative

number is the same as multiplying it with zero, and yields an empty
sequence.

1998-01-22 20:45:31 +00:00
7c418ed89c
Added descriptions for log() and log10().
...
Clarified that floor() and ceil() return reals. Same for the integer part
returned by modf().
Some markup consistency changes.
1998-01-22 17:37:50 +00:00
ed79783bb2
Converted to use new macros. This example demonstrate \method{} and, more
...
importantly, \url{}.
1998-01-22 16:11:18 +00:00
55f4492859
Converted to use semantic markup. This is an example of how many of the new

1998-01-21 04:58:39 +00:00
1abf0df5b4
Simple documentation of the copy_reg module.
...
Guido, you should probably look at this. The pickle documentation is out of
date; I don't see anything about the __reduce__() stuff or the
__safe_for_unpickling__ attribute.
1998-01-21 04:58:10 +00:00
d1cc9c2b92
Update comment about relative URL internet draft to reflect current RFC status;

Use trailing "()" on function names in running text.
1998-01-20 05:52:23 +00:00
a46f84d293
Added index entry and \label{} for exceptions module. This isn't in the
...
normal modules portion of the manual, but that's the basic effect of this
section with the 1.5 change in exception support.
1998-01-20 05:26:12 +00:00
73a973bf8d
Always mark variables in the "Notes" following a table the same way as in the

it already got it right.
1998-01-20 04:40:41 +00:00

Add module reference for cPickle to index.
...
Consistency: Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.
Consistency: Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.
Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP". I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.
1998-01-09 22:36:51 +00:00

In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals;

"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html

fixes both. Breaks the .texi file generation again. Oh well.

78f8e98232
Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by
...
the info generation phases. Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.
Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call. It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00

f9951818a6
Normalized the \seetext markup to match the only other instance: should be
...
"\seetext{...}" instead of "\seetext ...".
1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
45c9df6636
Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is
...
rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
7f96291ee2
Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to

Some reorganization (all limit operations & constants together, and all usage
...
functions and constants together).
Make explicit datadesc sections for each of the constants which might appear,
and have a description of each. (Descriptions are based on the Linux
documentation and sources and the Solaris man pages.)
Hopefully Jeremy won't mind, because I didn't ask. ;-)
1997-12-06 07:25:41 +00:00
0d3b4f8beb
Fixed unresolved reference problem; this module wasn't \label{}ed.
...
Remove spurious underscore following book title. Added specific reference to
a Win32 networking book.
Changed \indexsubitem from (in module SocketServer) to (SocketServer protocol),
since it's talking about a protocol supported by a collection of classes.

Arg; more nits, but I may as well finish the job.

456035f4b1
The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions
...
to use the opcodedesc environment.
Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.
Fixed a typo: "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.
Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent. Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me. It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project. Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.
1997-12-03 04:06:57 +00:00

73ec2c0081
Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally
...
messed up (but not checked in) version in my work files and didn't
notice before releasing 1.5 -- at least the distributed latex file
doesn't have the bogus warning about changed __init__ semantics.
1997-11-27 01:39:15 +00:00
ee9f820cf1
Documented brand new behavior of sys.ps1 and sys.ps2 (str() is applied

Removed leading comment about this being "introductory" documentation;
...
compared to most, I'd say this section is fairly thorough.
Fixed \indexsubitem definitions for symbol and token module sub-documents.
Perhaps these should be moved to their own files, but they're awefully
small.

In the description of sub(), give a better explanation of the
