dirname in sys.path. This means that you can create a symbolic link
foo in /usr/local/bin pointing to /usr/yourname/src/foo/foo.py, and
then invoking foo will insert /usr/yourname/src/foo in sys.path, not
/usr/local/bin. This makes it easier to have multifile programs
(before, the program would have to do an os.readlink(sys.argv[0])
itself and insert the resulting directory in sys.path -- Grail does
this).
Note that the expansion is only used for sys.path; sys.argv[0] is
still the original, unadorned filename (/usr/local/bin/foo in the
example).
directory containing argv[0] is inserted in front of sys.path.
If argv[0] contains no directory, an empty string is inserted.
If argv is empty, nothing happens.
getcounts() returns a list of counts of allocations and
deallocations for all different object types.
getobjects(n [, type ]) returns a list of recently allocated
and not-yet-freed objects of the given type (all
objects if no type given). Only the n most recent
(all if n==0) objects are returned.
getcounts is only available if compiled with -DCOUNT_ALLOCS,
getobjects is only available if compiled with -DTRACE_REFS. Note that
everything must be compiled with these options!
bltinmodule.c: fixed coerce() nightmare in ternary pow().
modsupport.c (initmodule2): pass METH_FREENAME flag to newmethodobject().
pythonrun.c: move flushline() into and around print_error().
* various modules: added 1993 to copyright.
* thread.c: added copyright notice.
* ceval.c: minor change to error message for "+"
* stdwinmodule.c: check for error from wfetchcolor
* config.c: MS-DOS fixes (define PYTHONPATH, use DELIM, use osdefs.h)
* Add declaration of inittab to import.h
* sysmodule.c: added sys.builtin_module_names
* xxmodule.c, xxobject.c: fix minor errors
sys.stderr or sys.stdin, and to work with any object as long as it has
a write() (respectively readline()) methods. Some functions that took
a FILE* argument now take an object* argument.
arguments crashed in INCREF() calls which should be XINCREF() calls.
timemodule.c: fix for SEQUENT port (sys/select, struct timezone) by
Jaap Vermeulen
xxobject.c: include modsupport.h
