Added some files to the library reference.
1999-02-16 19:08:16 +00:00
abfd7d6701
Small grammatical fix; missing comma.
1999-02-16 17:34:51 +00:00
295fb434ed
Make it clear that Demo/embed/ is from the source distribution.
1999-02-16 17:29:42 +00:00
beb27bfef7
Make navigation panels more CSS-friendly.
...
Make sure the contents page always has the "table of child links"
turned off; this wasn't being handled properly by latex2html for
"howto" ("article") documents, so just do it ourselves for all
document types.
1999-02-16 17:22:32 +00:00
e96a31da96
Use the same markup for email addresses as is produced by using \email
...
in the LaTeX sources.
1999-02-16 16:16:37 +00:00
cce8d2a85a
Adjust cellspacing attribute of the navigation bar tables to get some
...
space between cells on all (major) browsers.
1999-02-16 14:21:54 +00:00
6f9dd5d719
Remove stuff related to copying the icons directory around -- just
...
isn't needed.
1999-02-15 21:43:55 +00:00
b8a7d72857
Moved icons into the html directory to avoid pollution of the top level.
1999-02-15 21:42:47 +00:00
66b989c805
Be explicit about the reference count of the original value of the
...
first parameter to PyString_Concat().
1999-02-15 20:15:39 +00:00
4d33e4e1a8
HTMLBASE: New variable. Make it easier to check an "installed" copy
...
of the HTML documents using the webcheck target.
When there's not a usable .aux file, use mkdvi.sh --aux instead of
building the .dvi completely. This makes the most difference for the
library reference.
1999-02-15 19:29:08 +00:00
efa641c45a
Add an optional parameter to make the script run latex only once to
...
generate an .aux file. This can make HTML generation a bit faster
when print formats aren't needed.
Explained parameters in a comment.
1999-02-15 19:27:07 +00:00
3618c14f72
Use a common definition for $(SUBMAKE) instead of repeating everything
...
all over the place.
1999-02-15 16:50:28 +00:00
aa1afa8d30
Added availability notes for samefile(), sameopenfile(), samestat()
...
since these are not available on Windows.
1999-02-15 16:34:00 +00:00
5d59d3df7f
Added --l2h-config option to add additional initialization files for
...
latex2html. Can be useful in setting up things like the upward
external link for the top of the documents.
1999-02-15 16:27:42 +00:00
ec9fbe90be
Added section "Providing a C API for an Extension Module" by Konrad
...
Hinsen.
"\C{}" --> "C"
1999-02-15 16:20:25 +00:00
efd146c916
Markup nits.
...
Added section on module objects; described functions in
moduleobject.c.
1999-02-15 15:30:45 +00:00

Set target.
1999-02-15 15:02:21 +00:00

Minor fix that helps out with the index.
1999-02-12 22:06:32 +00:00
9474d86242
Make sure all HTML pages generated from this section have reasonable
...
names.
Markup nits.
1999-02-12 22:05:33 +00:00
5761b766b2
L2HARGS: Specify the HTML version we're producing, since this is what

we generate anyway.

2d2b6a0074
Markup nits.
1999-02-12 20:40:49 +00:00

Use the shorter form of Christopher Petrilli's email address.
1999-02-12 20:09:59 +00:00
28bc711f5f
Added section for MimeWriter, contributed by Christopher Petrilli
...
<petrilli@amber.org>.
This spells the end of another whole section in the undoc chapter!
1999-02-12 19:26:09 +00:00
f7bf3b2b06
Added entry for MimeWriter module.
1999-02-12 19:24:02 +00:00
15799edd34
Make table headers the same color as the navigation bars so they stand
...
out a little better.
Make sure the boxes for the last column of tables always get drawn;
these are often left empty of content when used as a "Notes" column.
They look a little better this way.
1999-02-12 19:23:17 +00:00
7a9ed71e95
Moved the navigation-bar background color to a variable.
1999-02-12 19:00:38 +00:00
26b698fa4d
Document <complex #>.conjugate().
1999-02-12 18:27:31 +00:00
15988fdbbb
Documented __complex__(), made sure all the discipline names hit the
...
index.
1999-02-12 18:14:57 +00:00
2e1ee3eb19
Fix up some routines to coordinate the "indexsubitem" stuff so that
...
the subitem text is updated correctly when each module section is
processed.
Print [<modulename>] when we start on \declaremodule so we can more
easily track progress during the library reference.
1999-02-10 21:17:04 +00:00
72e5a901c2
Remove unnecessary <p> from top navigation bar.
1999-02-10 17:35:41 +00:00
ec5c0b41ae
Revert previous change; there's a better way to do it.
1999-02-10 17:08:00 +00:00
95474f9696
Change the navigation bar to be a little prettier and more consistent
...
with the python.org style.
1999-02-09 18:45:50 +00:00
446ab75fcf
New blank icon to match the others in size & color, with without any
...
symbol on it.
1999-02-09 18:27:21 +00:00
2d1f81ea22
do_cmd_maketitle(): Small nit in creating the "title page".
1999-02-09 16:03:31 +00:00
1a4c5392b5
Back out some of the fine tuning; something in all that interacted
...
badly in practice and botched the whole thing. Wasn't obvious when
looking at the local effects (which worked), but completely broke
entire pages. ;-(
1999-02-09 15:31:52 +00:00
ce67f06491
Update documentation to reflect changes to Queue.py by Tim Peters.
1999-02-08 18:43:13 +00:00
dfb4e24431
Respond to suggestion from "Albert" <hat@se-46.wpa.wtb.tue.nl> to add
...
document titles to the list of files.
Also added total page count and a note that comments should be
directed to python-docs@python.org .
1999-02-05 20:50:59 +00:00
2ff880e2cf
More magic to tighten up a little of the formatting.
1999-02-05 18:31:29 +00:00
f9918f25b1
Minor nit to prevent dropping a space in the HTML generation.
1999-02-05 18:30:49 +00:00
d673d481f5
Document sameopenfile(), samestat().
1999-02-03 22:31:30 +00:00
0256c1f453
Document splitdrive().
...
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs. "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.
1999-02-03 19:24:44 +00:00
0c9608cf1b
Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the
...
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX). Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it. Adapted the doc strings too.
1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00
dbd37dfcff
Remove three items.
1999-02-02 19:03:09 +00:00

Moved \versionadded to end of description sections.
1999-02-02 19:01:37 +00:00
12ba7868e4
Moved posixpath to os.path.
1999-02-02 19:00:37 +00:00
560bcae0f0
Added posixpath, winsound.
1999-02-02 18:59:58 +00:00
a9b9bf96fe
Change this to be os.path.
...
Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).
1999-02-02 18:58:33 +00:00
bb79438d26
This seems to fix a problem with targeting from the indexes.
1999-02-02 18:57:12 +00:00
2116d983bf
Make \versionadded and \versionchanged less prominant -- neither bold
...
nor a separate paragraph.
1999-02-02 18:02:48 +00:00
d0bceeeb59
Move \versionadded macros to end of descriptions.
1999-02-02 18:00:40 +00:00
09da65ef2f
Patch by Sjoerd Mullender to placate /F:
...
Clarified (hopefully :-) the documentation of elements and attributes
variables.
1999-02-02 17:55:12 +00:00
dbd72a4e4f
Added module synopsis.
1999-02-01 21:27:59 +00:00
68a8c69499
Take out just about everything and refer the reader to the os module.
1999-02-01 20:23:02 +00:00
b23ee1d899
Make the text generic, and call it os.path instead of posixpath.
1999-02-01 20:20:39 +00:00
59d8b73cef
Remove all references to posixpath; only refer to os.path.
...
Formalize the xstat() documentation.
1999-02-01 20:19:38 +00:00
98be47e737
OSError description: "as the by the" --> "as the"
1999-02-01 16:17:40 +00:00
7281b3b779
Updated comments on version of XML package needed.
1999-01-29 22:35:23 +00:00
28e66d1c5e
Added the info tarball to the tarballs target. Added the README to
...
the info tarball.
1999-01-29 22:23:25 +00:00
b2c59ab367
A README file for the info tarball.
1999-01-29 22:22:03 +00:00

Added support to handle \versionadded in a reasonable way.
1999-01-29 22:12:29 +00:00

Define %descriptor.class, since it's used.
1999-01-29 21:38:14 +00:00
279ca75a5b
Be a little smarter on some attribute values, making an assumption about
...
the DTD.
1999-01-29 21:35:50 +00:00
3a7ff998ac
fixup_descriptors(): Change the way we look for descriptor nodes;
...
this takes 5 minutes off the conversion of the whole tree by
reducing the number of tree-traversals from 14 to 1.
1999-01-29 21:31:12 +00:00
666e60095b
Added the Doc/sgml/ directory to the tarball.
1999-01-29 21:22:55 +00:00
cb65781d93
Rewrite code that converts the little descriptor environments to build
...
the right <signature>s and <description>. This seems to work a lot
better now!
1999-01-29 20:55:07 +00:00
75930b31e2
Added table entries for \funcline and \funclineni.
1999-01-29 20:09:27 +00:00
1804dc3c07
Document abspath() (implementation is forthcoming).
1999-01-29 18:05:05 +00:00
f339632da0
Define a general entity "&version;" that can be used as the current major
...
version of the Python interpreter. This is \version in the LaTeX format
of the documentation.
1999-01-29 16:42:37 +00:00
fdfd50f815
Convert <version> to &version;.
1999-01-29 16:29:25 +00:00
7859f17608
A few scribbles toward the DTD.
1999-01-29 16:21:20 +00:00
6bcc53c109
Standard ISO entities.
1999-01-29 16:20:24 +00:00
2eb07f0945
The OASIS Exchange table model public text.
1999-01-29 15:57:31 +00:00
7dab6affba
Update the docstring.
...
Lots of changes to get the paragraph marking to work, and not go into
an infinite recursion.
Start to rationalize markup of method signatures; not complete.
find_all_elements(): similar to getElementsByTagName(), but operates
on the not-quite-legal fragments we deal with here.
Simplifies several individual transforms.
fixup_sectionauthors(): Convert \sectionauthor items to <author> just
after the <section>'s <title>.
1999-01-28 23:59:58 +00:00
3f3b09657f
Added table entries for \methodline, \methodlineni.
1999-01-28 23:49:37 +00:00
ae3e574170
"numberic" --> "numeric", two places
1999-01-28 23:21:49 +00:00
1453a8caf9
Constructor arguments for classes should be called <args>.
1999-01-28 23:10:48 +00:00
703b70e260
Added \modulesynopsis.
1999-01-28 19:30:49 +00:00
6b86a42c7f
Document -OO; "unsafe" optimization that removes docstrings.
...
Marc-Andre Lemburg.
1999-01-28 15:07:47 +00:00
ffd511248e
Add the info "dir" fragment to the info tarball.
1999-01-27 18:50:21 +00:00
8d7919d754
Fragment of an info "dir" file for the Python documentation.
1999-01-27 18:49:44 +00:00
ffc4811a40
Simplify slightly.
1999-01-27 18:40:36 +00:00
c5efde8522
Don't build info for the Macintosh module reference by default; it
...
doesn't do well.
1999-01-27 18:30:16 +00:00
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
580f4ab5dc
Added the files for the repr and ConfigParser modules.
1999-01-27 17:21:09 +00:00
9d814c6805
Document the repr module. This removes the entire "Code objects and
...
files, debugger etc." section from "Undocumented Modules"!
1999-01-27 17:20:33 +00:00
da452bf6a7
Don't say that the module defines the "following functions" and then
...
only describe one; say "following function" instead!
Merge the two one-sentence paragraphs into a single paragraph, so it
doesn't look too stupid.
1999-01-27 15:48:23 +00:00
ebe2a12de8
Incorporate changes for patched version of ConfigParser.
1999-01-26 21:49:05 +00:00
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
bc866ce2e3
Documentation for the ConfigParser module, by Christopher G. Petrilli

9700e9becc
Document the default for tabsize in expandtabs().
1999-01-25 22:31:53 +00:00
a49a4eabbf
Add "term" to AUTOCLOSE.
1999-01-22 22:48:24 +00:00
d1dbf633ed
Header for PyObject_DelItem() mentioned non-existing 3rd argument.
1999-01-22 20:10:49 +00:00
43278f01dc
convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of
...
general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted
when SGML is generated. This can be used to tell the markup
generator to drop stuff like </para>. Note that it needs to
be possible for the closing tag to *always* be omitted for it
to be included in "autoclose".
main(): Added command-line option "-a" / "--autoclose" to set the
list of general identifiers passed to the convert() function
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".
1999-01-20 20:35:05 +00:00
0a5b8de5e2
Modified the "sgml" and "xml" targets to stop if the sub-makes fail in
...
any subdirectory; don't continue with remaining subdirs.
Added "api", "ext", "lib", "mac", "ref", and "tut" targets to only do
submakes in those directories. This is just a lot easier to use than
to cd into the subdir and use make.rules directly.
1999-01-20 17:26:56 +00:00
19a0dba342
Add caveat on partial dependence on the "cl" module, only available on
...
IRIX systems.
1999-01-20 16:26:09 +00:00
9ea3e36419
Move the jpeg module to the SGI section; it is dependent on the "cl"
...
module available on IRIX.
1999-01-20 15:55:20 +00:00
4259f0db04
create_module_info(): If there's a \moduleauthor, move it to an
...
<author> inside the <moduleinfo> element.
Fix problems with paragraph identification.
1999-01-19 23:09:31 +00:00
36dfe58694
isnmtoken(), istoken(): Fix to ensure the regex has to match the
...
entire attribute value.
Add ability to save list of "empty" elements to a file -- enabled by
constant in the code.
1999-01-19 23:03:04 +00:00
2664db9f76
handle_labels(): Fix problem for document fragments containing more
...
than one "root" that prevented all the <label id=...> items
from being promoted to id attributes on the enclosing chapter/
section/... properly.
1999-01-19 21:46:48 +00:00
a7998f650a
Revised comments on null bytes in pattern string.
...
Removed "New" from module synopsis.
1999-01-19 20:00:08 +00:00
6ffa445832
Fix second description of handling 2-digit years (last item in
...
introductory text).
1999-01-19 19:35:18 +00:00
d6ced7d199
convert(): Change the element name remapping to convert <refmodule>
...
to <module link>.
1999-01-19 17:11:23 +00:00
f82e4ab617
format_attrs(): Attempt a bit more minimization for SGML output.
1999-01-19 17:10:31 +00:00
9bbdce5945
add_module_idx(), add_idx_hook():
...
Change the message printed before running buildindex.py;
"Doing the index..." wasn't clear and could be misinterpreted
with an inappropriate mindset. ;-)
1999-01-19 16:30:10 +00:00
7eca8e5017
Fix typo spotted by Jeff MacDonald <jam@ans.net>.
1999-01-18 15:46:02 +00:00
589bc63e84
Add a "tarball" target.
1999-01-14 22:35:05 +00:00
6038f54b74
Adjust so that we are no longer using special entities for well-known
...
names. These are too much of a pain for occaissional authors.
1999-01-14 21:44:56 +00:00
53610caee2
for method getaddrlist(): Added a note clarifying that all named
...
headers and their continuation lines are parsed.
1999-01-14 21:26:54 +00:00
3effeedad3
Shorten the name of the <rfc> "number" attribute to "num".
1999-01-14 21:18:52 +00:00
d24167baf2
Make <rfc> no longer an empty element but a container. The text
...
currently generated by the LaTeX and LaTeX2HTML processes is generated
here as well, making it more flexible in the SGML version.
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.
1999-01-14 21:18:03 +00:00
f8ebb5521d
Several new functions to re-write tables to be at least partly
...
conformant with the OASIS Exchange model. There's a little more
massage left to do, but not much.
1999-01-14 19:45:38 +00:00
a50a1df588
Added clean and clobber targets.
1999-01-14 18:26:23 +00:00

Update to the latest version of Michael Ernst's script.
1999-01-14 18:17:07 +00:00

"Driver" makefile to convert all documents to SGML or XML at once.
1999-01-14 18:13:59 +00:00
7727416686
Add usage of the "driver" Makefile.
1999-01-14 18:12:33 +00:00
9d1c3b565f
Elaborate a comment on the format of the table that drives the
...
conversion.
1999-01-14 18:10:09 +00:00
d7acf02290
Adjustments to allow elements with subelements as parameters. This is
...
used to deal with the table headings and entries.
An additional flag in the element table is used to indicate elements
which have no "general" content, but which do have subelement
content. These must be flagged distinctly from empty elements.
Currently used for \lineii, \lineiii, and \lineiv.
1999-01-14 17:38:12 +00:00

Minor adjustments to a few index entries.

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.

Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that

Icons only needed if using the change control marks, which are bogus.

Remove files we never used; l2h would only use these if you use the

special "html" package, which we don't and won't.
1998-08-11 18:31:35 +00:00

Use Perl's rename() function instead of system(); there's no need for two

Add a comment explaining that this script is probably not useful outside the

standard Python documentation, since the mkhowto.sh script is. Let there be
no doubts....

Control when/where navigation bars will appear: top & bottom of each page.
...
Include an additional button to the module index in the nav. bars if we
generate a module index. Still need a button image, but the ALT text should
do for now.

Added some dependencies to some of the HTML generation targets.
1998-08-07 18:01:37 +00:00
aee5e26f4b
Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once;
...
with examples and workaround. This keeps coming up, and I believe
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.
1998-08-07 17:45:09 +00:00

9940bd717c
Variant of AMK's patch to produce text versions of HOWTO documents.
...
This ensures that the text version uses latex2html's -split 1 option, without
affecting HTML produced in the same run, and also minimizes the number of
l2h runs needed if --split 1 was used for an HTML run.
1998-08-06 20:15:20 +00:00

11300cc71e
build_html(): Simplify, so there's only one version of the latex2html
...
command line.
l2hoption(): Convenience function, to write out an option to the aux. init.
file only if set.
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.
1998-08-05 04:48:18 +00:00
1ca8fdc446
Remove modified setting of $ICONSERVER; this isn't the right way to do it.
1998-08-05 04:36:09 +00:00
45f2601cf3
get_chapter_id(): Separate two aspects of string replacement to allow the

need for each to vary independently.

Remove use of the avant package; Helvetica isn't as pretty, but works for

Use the new module synopsis syntax, even though we don't need a synopsis table

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.

\chapter: Extended, ensures that a pending module synopsis is written out
and then closes the .syn file for the preceeding chapter.

Complete the addition of libthreading.tex. (Isn't it annoying that
...
you need to edit four files in order to add one section to the manual?)
1998-07-20 17:34:50 +00:00

Add libthreading.tex to LIBFILES.

Rewritten a bit to address some criticism in the newsgroup.
1998-07-06 20:47:40 +00:00

Added back the description of the exec statement. It appears that I
...
accidentally cut it out when removing the access statement! Added a
paragraph on __builtins__ and other possible manipulations of the key
space of the dictionaries. Added some index entries.

Added a section to the chapter on modules, describing the package system.
...
The text is almost completely from GvR's essay on packages; some
introductory paragraphs have been removed, and everything after the
'Details' section in the HTML has been dropped (seems too technical). A
paragraph has been added after the sample package layout stating that there
must be a file called__init__.py in a directory to make it a package.

Clearly I was to quick with the previous commit...

Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too.
Made x a \var in descr of pop.
Fixed note for pop() and mentioned that it is experimental.
Also added pop to index.

Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). Also
...
document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit()

obsolete.

Removed loading of shared font stuff from howto.cls and manual.cls, moving it
...
to pypaper.sty.
Added the use of the "avant" package to use AvantGarde for the sans-serif
font instead of the helvetica font loaded by the "times" package.
1998-06-22 17:50:34 +00:00

Fix unclear wording pointed out by Tim Peters, about the interaction between

There's no point in mentioning F6 as an alternate EOF on DOS -- it
...
doesn't work on modern Windows systems, and Control-Z works
everywhere.
1998-06-22 14:28:39 +00:00
a7874d1505
Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable
...
goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it
doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type()
builtin...
1998-06-22 14:07:36 +00:00

Documented that by default the output goes to stderr, and that a file
...
keyword argument can be used to direct it somewhere else. Also
documented all the other functions in this module, and even added a
little example.
# Haven't tested the latex for correctness -- all latex installations

1998-06-17 22:37:26 +00:00

Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent to
...
eval(raw_input(s)). The statement about breaking a long expression
over multiple lines is no longer true.
