9b0581192d
Added embryonic description of fcntl.lockf(). Added pointer to that
...
in posixfile (which is obsolescent).
1996-10-11 17:43:34 +00:00
Fred Drake
22f7f9e671
(texi2html.py): Added CLASS=Navigation attribute to DIV around top/bottom
...
navigation links for HTML 3 version.
Forced a blank line above the footnotes separator for HTML 2; at
least one page did not get this spaced correctly.
1996-10-11 16:54:00 +00:00

Fred Drake
11b6d24da0
(partparse.py): Small fix to do_datadesc(): in some odd cases the name of
...
data item was omitted, which also affected the indentation of the
description.
1996-10-10 20:09:56 +00:00

(Makefile): Push texi2html.py options into a make variable.

0282726643
(texi2html.py): Tightened the generated HTML slightly. Added -p option to
...
print section titles even when the debugging output is not enabled.
Added -3 option to generate HTML 3.0 constructs where meaningful.
Removed repititive garbage generation: the old version added simple
descriptive comments after every datadesc/funcdesc/*desc entry:
function(args) -- function of module xxxx
Description....
These comments are no longer generated:
function(args)
Description....

(texi2html.py): Use "if __name__ == '__main__':" test. Adjust indentation
...
to 4 spaces per level (no longer 8).
(Makefile): Use .pyc versions of partparse.py and texi2html.py to generate
converted documentation formats. This reduces the startup costs;
probably doesn't affect anyone but me in reality, but helps when
working on the docs.
