Script to fix up the Library Reference index so it's less ugly. The docstring:
...
"""Combine similar index entries into an entry and subentries.
For example:
\item {foobar} (in module flotz), 23
\item {foobar} (in module whackit), 4323
becomes
\item {foobar}
\subitem in module flotz, 23
\subitem in module whackit, 4323
Note that an item which matches the format of a collapsable item but which
isn't part of a group of similar items is not modified.
"""
This results in a much more readable index, with less repitition of text;
especially for common method names.

\itembreak, \itemjoin: Remove unused macros.

\idxcode{}: New macro; used to mark things that would be \code{} for entry
into the index. This allows easily switching things around for the

New version of xmllib from Sjoerd.

Proposed new macros: see comments. These are not yet used.
...
These are intended to support semantic markup. There are a number
of places in the documentation where the exact meaning of an

be a module or a class, a function or a method, etc.). These are
intended to clarify the intent of the identifier for processing
applications and more intelligent style processing.

\funcitem{}, \dataitem{}, \excitem{}: Removed obsolete macros; there are no

\var{}: Ensure that the argument is always set in roman italic, in case an
alternate font is being used for code. These keeps the result of
\var{} consistent.
Some minor changes to allow easier exploration of alternate fonts for code in
the running text. Haven't changed the selected font; I haven't found one that
has everything required! (The best non-monospaced font so far was missing
the <, >, and | characters, or at least had them at the wrong locations. It
also allowed confusion between upper-case I and lower-case L.)

{seealso} environment: Always start a new paragraph after the "See Also:"

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.

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

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

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed

Fred Drake
2cd0b9b1ba
Removed "-*-texinfo-*-" from first line; this can cause emacs/xemacs to stop

and ask the user for permission to set buffer-local variables depending on
the user's configuration. Not really needed since this doesn't get edited
often.
Bumped the version number to 1.5; date still needs to be set.
