Fred Drake 7eac0cb04c Define the \mailheader macro and document conventions for using it. 2001-08-03 18:36:17 +00:00
Fred Drake f269e59232 Define new markup for 5-column tables. 2001-07-17 23:05:57 +00:00
Fred Drake b4b64daa5e Add \ulink, grammar production markup. 2001-07-06 22:44:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 5445e5e305 \infinity,
\plusminus:  New macros to allow us to avoid math mode for these symbols.
2001-06-23 03:11:45 +00:00
Fred Drake c65218e1fd Add a little more support for describing version information. This
is not pretty, but does what is needed.
2001-06-20 21:17:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 06a01e84b9 Define a new environment, classdesc*, which can be used to document a
class without providing any information about the constructor.  This
should be used for classes which only exist to act as containers rather
than as factories for instances.
2001-05-11 01:00:30 +00:00
Fred Drake fdfb05bb0b \versionadded: Add support for including an explanatory note along with
the versioning information, similar to \versionchanged.
2001-04-18 03:08:54 +00:00
Fred Drake b5309a956e Import the alltt package and wrap that environment in a similar way to
the way we handle verbatim, so that it picks up the same indentation and
minipage behavior.
2001-04-10 15:53:06 +00:00
Fred Drake ab357ecf7f Label classes and exceptions explicitly in the documentation (for their
*desc environments).
2001-03-02 18:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 31ab298df6 Remove the dollar sign from the formatting of environment variables --
too Unix-specific, and not really needed.  (Already fixed the HTML
formatting, but forgot to mention it in the checkin for python.perl 1.94.)
2001-01-22 17:50:42 +00:00
Fred Drake ec77e6590d Fix \withsubitem so that it actually works if the only indexing macro in
the content body is the \ttindex macro, which seems to match actual usage.

Adjust \funcline to restore the "index sub-item" for functions to be
" (in module <name>)" instead of " (in <name>)".  This is need to match
uses of \withsubitem throughout the documentation.  (Not ideal, but
gets achieves consistency.)
2000-10-30 06:22:22 +00:00
Fred Drake a33c566138 Avoid using \withsubitem and \ttindex internally; they have not proven
to be very robust.  Using \index directly fixes a lot of entries in the
index that had to be specifically read to determine that they had the
wrong parenthesized description.
2000-10-29 05:19:16 +00:00
Fred Drake f61eac425a Remove second horizontal line below table headers; it is just too
distracting.
2000-10-24 02:18:30 +00:00
Fred Drake da72b93a01 Add new environments: longtableii, longtableiii, and longtableiv, to
support long tables which might break across page boundaries.  Otherwise
identical to tableii, tableiii, and tableiv.
2000-09-21 15:58:02 +00:00
Fred Drake af2b71466a \shortversion,
\setshortversion:  New markup to help deal with Python having a "real"
                   version number and an abbreviated version number
                   used to create pathnames to the library installation.
2000-09-14 20:11:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 48449985f4 \seetitle: New macro for building reference list content. 2000-09-12 17:52:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e607964d1 excclassdesc: New environment. For use in documenting class-based
exceptions which have interesting constructor signatures.

\pep, \seepep:  New macros.  Equivalent to \rfc and \seerfc, but
        referring to the PEP series instead of the Internet RFC
        series of documents.
2000-09-09 06:01:25 +00:00
Fred Drake de9fec5f99 \citetitle: Format the title, not the optional URL! 2000-08-17 04:25:59 +00:00
Fred Drake cc2b81e7f3 \py@varvars: Merge the various definitions to be the simplist one that
does everything needed, and discard the older stuff that is not
	being used.
2000-08-03 17:38:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 46346ec14e Try to make sure \code always uses roman (non-italic) text.
Change a 1.6 version number used in a an example in a comment to 2.0.
2000-06-30 17:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 51313f164c Define \seeurl in the seealso environment. Two parameters: url, why. 2000-05-09 16:18:44 +00:00
Fred Drake a6e8339e61 \versionchanged: Added optional parameter for explanation of change. 2000-05-02 17:28:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 64b72b6f4f Define \seerfc within the seealso environment. 2000-04-26 18:13:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 493624941a \longprogramopt: New macro. 2000-04-11 18:47:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a863da1f8 cfuncdesc environment:
When processing the optional parameter, don't append any text;
        let the pre-processor supply all of it.
2000-04-10 18:21:38 +00:00
Fred Drake ba82878a3b Merged changes from the 1.5.2p2 release. 2000-04-03 04:19:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 7b8195a209 \programopt: New macro, used to mark command-line parameters in the
text.  Looks like \program.

\citetitle:   New macro, used to mark titles of cited works (like the
              names of the Python manuals).  Accepts & discards an
              optional parameter that is only used by the HTML
              formatter.  Looks like \emph.

Fred Drake d85b5a418a Move the setting for secnumdepth to the document classes; make the numbering
for the manual class go one deeper than it previously did (\subsection
entries will now be numbered); no change for howto documents.

This makes it easier to refer precisely to smaller sections using \ref.

Fred Drake 66823029a4 \declaremodule: Typo. 1999-05-17 14:57:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 5bc8d99bce \declaremodule: Make this more robust. Only attempt to add an index
entry based on the module type if the type is known.
		 Otherwise, spit out a warning the the module type
		 parameter was bad and generate a "plain" index entry.

		 Without this, the bad module type was emitted as
		 text.

Problem noticed by processing Michael Hudson's docs for
bytecodehacks.
1999-05-17 14:47:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 84bd6f3b18 Change the look of \seemodule output to fit in better. 1999-05-11 15:42:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a0fd595b3 \filenq: Like \file, but don't use single-quotes; this looks better
in tables.
1999-04-28 14:59:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 9b8afdee44 Use more recent option to \pdfdest to not change the zoom factor.
This is in response to a comment from Wes Rishel <wes@rishel.com>.
1999-03-24 14:16:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 9466b9a10d Add some (commented out) macros to change the page size to the size of
typical published manuals, so people can more easily see what they're
really asking for.  ;-)

Revise the verbatim environment: simple implementation, but more
compatible if a document also add \usepackage{verbatim} at the
beginning.

Declare \modindex, \bimodindex, \exmodindex, and \stmodindex
obsolete.  These still work just fine, but \declaremodule should be
used instead.  The obsolete macros will print a warning on standard
out.
1999-03-18 16:18:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 0c275fa856 Added support for \platform, \platformof, and \ignorePlatformAnnotation. 1999-03-02 16:17:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 2116d983bf Make \versionadded and \versionchanged less prominant -- neither bold
nor a separate paragraph.
1999-02-02 18:02:48 +00:00
Fred Drake aa2aea0e79 \py@linkToName: New macro to consolidate support for most internal
hyperlinking in the PDF version.  This also allows many of the
	macros that do this stuff to be a good bit more readable.
	Takes the target name and link content as parameters.

Use \py@linkToName for all internal links.
1999-01-27 17:37:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 9f253dc3ff \py@modindex: Format the index entry for the module index more like
that used in the "normal" index.  No visual difference, but
	more easily processed by helper scripts.
1999-01-26 19:23:09 +00:00
Fred Drake da94374a86 \seemodule: Fix so that each \seemodule entry gets its own paragraph,
so they don't get run together when there's no blank line
	between them in the source.  The HTML conversion already did
	the right thing.

\refmodule:  Refer to a module, using a hyperlink in the PDF version.
	Visually the same as \module.
1999-01-13 17:09:06 +00:00
Fred Drake fa1cceb91f Make \var work correctly in math mode. 1998-11-30 14:42:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 1cbd196f96 Minor nit that fixes a bunch of indexing: the way the classdesc
environment saves the name of the last class described, method and
member descriptions were not picking it up correctly.  Thus, many
index entries were described as "( method)" instead of "(FooClass
method)".  Multiple entries were collapsed in the index when
methods/members from multiple classes share the same name.
1998-11-25 17:13:28 +00:00
Fred Drake f9acc59c55 \itembreak,
\itemjoin:  Remove obsolete macros.

\itemnewline:  Rename to \py@itemnewline, since it's only used internally.
1998-09-09 15:27:43 +00:00
Fred Drake b75c615389 \moduleauthor,
\sectionauthor:  New macros to record attributions; no output.
1998-08-10 18:41:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 1e4973be73 Define stuff to allow simple HTML-only selection using TeX's \if<foo>...\fi
stuff.  \ifhtml ...\fi for HTML only.
1998-07-28 21:52:17 +00:00
Fred Drake af958c7be2 \versionadded,
\versionchanged:  New macros.
1998-07-27 20:32:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 30e52653e1 {tableiv} environment: Four-column table.
\lineiv:  Row for {tableiv}.
1998-07-24 22:11:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 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
Fred Drake 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
Fred Drake 8e54abe92e Fix the \kbd definition so it didn't leave the courier face on. 1998-07-01 14:49:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 3bf7865a20 Added {definitions} environment, which has \term to define indivual terms.
Similar to {description}.
