This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.
Fix the release number -- this is supposed to be the *Python* release,
not the documentation release! The later is given by the combination of
the Python release number and the date. Add a comment so I can keep it
straight.
\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.
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.
The \\ introduced in the \author in boilerplate.tex broke the PDF
generation because line breaks are not allowed in the "Document Info"
metadata stored in the PDF file. This changes the line break to
a ", " (comma-space) in that context.
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.
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.
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.
\op adds an optional parameter, and \p adds a required parameter.
These are only defined in the context of the parameter list parameter
of the envdesc and macrodesc environments.
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.
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.
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.
