Moved IGNORECASE & friends to "top level" definitions following compile(),

Fred Drake a594bafde7 Normalized case rules in section headings.
Moved stuff from "Recent Additions to 1.1" to "More on Defining Functions".
This means there's now a short section on "Defining Functions" immediately
followed by a long section "More on Defining Functions."

Fred Drake 1191692d3d Lots of little nits.
Big fix:  the module index for the Python Library Reference is once more in a
separate file!  Yeah!
1998-04-02 22:30:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 58b2bfd0bf This fixes a (minor) problem discovered by AMK when you don't want any
special markup for the first column of a table using {tableii} or {tableiii}.
In LaTeX, this requires using "textrm" as the formatting function, and this
is needed to remove the bogus "<textrm>" that gets generated otherwise.
There should probably be a more general mapping of specified markup to useful
markup, but that doesn't appear needed at the moment.

do_env_tableii(), do_env_tableiii():  If the markup for the first column is
	\textrm, make it empty.

do_cmd_lineii(), do_cmd_lineiii():  If the markup for the first column is
	empty, don't add markup around the text.

Fred Drake b401637bd8 Markup nits, index entries. 1998-04-02 18:44:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 674e0fd7a8 Be more specific about where in RFC 1421 to look, since it's not at all
obvious when taking a quick look.

Say "base64" instead of "base-64", since that seems to be how it's referred
to in other RFCs.

Fred Drake c6fa34e4d0 Markup consistency & nits.
Fix typo in a C code example:  KeyError is spelled PyExc_KeyError in C; the
"K" is upper case!

Some index entries.

On function signatures, always use parameter names.  Make return types match
what's in the header files.  When the return type is a pointer, always omit
the space between te type name and the "*"; leaving it in results in

	type * func(..)

and having two spaces there just looks terrible.
1998-04-02 06:47:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e9625e86b8 AMK's version from the latest pypcre distribution. This clarifies a
few things and adds docs for what happens to escapes in replacement

Fred Drake ec56109a0a First (rough) cut at HTML index generation in Python. Not very pretty, but
easier to work with than the Perl code.

particular example.
1998-03-17 14:37:48 +00:00
Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty

Fred Drake 396a7cfb94 Reverting some the index stuff to use tools/newind.py again; this works
better with LaTeX2HTML.

Run pdflatex twice to generate the PDF files, even though LaTeX has already
been run a couple of times.  This ensures that font metrics for the final
run match those for the first run, and seesm to get (somewhat) better
outline results.

Fred Drake fc16e78f3c Bring this up to date. Some things still don't work right. 1998-03-12 21:03:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 94fac130bb \regexp{}: Rewritten to look like Freidl's book. Too rip-off?

Fred Drake 4e7e11abe5 Use \withsubitem{} for indexing extra-module functions. 1998-03-12 06:46:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 371ecc0c1b Use \withsubitem{} for indexing functions from other modules. This fixes
things in the index.
1998-03-12 06:44:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee9f727c9 \withsubitem{}: New macro. Change indexsubitem temporarily for another
macro.  Intended usage:

		\withsubitem{(in module foo)}{\ttindex{myfunc()}}

	This allows indexing functions from other modules/class/whatnot
	without being dependent on the exact expansions of several macros
	internal to python.sty.  It's also easier to read in the source!

Some new "logical" macros that seem to be useful:

\regexp{}:  For regular expressions.  To make it easier to keep the appearance
	consistent.

\mimetype{}:  Don't use \code{}!

\envvar{}:  Environment variable.  This does some indexing as well.

\character{}:  Just a character we want to talk about in the text, but not
	a Python constant.

Add section on using A4 paper, since that's a common request.
1998-03-11 17:07:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 664b36ff59 *Sigh*
Add a -q option for "quiet" operation.  Nothing gets out (not even stderr,
since that's tossed to stdout for capture in the .how file).  It's a good
idea to use -l to get the log in case there are problems.  Maybe this should
be the default and add a --verbose option to get the stdout?  There's way
too much junk output.
1998-03-11 15:41:21 +00:00
Fred Drake dbc879e949 Allow the user to operate the script in debugging mode (-D), which just does

1998-03-11 15:33:44 +00:00
Fred Drake c9f2c14d49 Somewhat more direct way of locating the file, using __FILE__.
Leave find_my_file() around for now, even though we're not using it at the

Fred Drake b390daf704 Adjust the index support a bit to make it easier to deal with module index.
Don't generate the mod???.idx file if it wasn't requested with the new command
\makemodindex.

lets us use makeindex for it and not need a special script.
