Fred Drake 0cf785a7a7 Grammatical nit. 1998-01-09 22:37:52 +00:00
Fred Drake cf7e830869 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.
1998-01-09 22:36:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 12d9da5827 Use \file{} instead of \code{} or ``\code{}'' to mark file & directory names
& name parts.
1998-01-09 22:30:32 +00:00

Added some seealso sections.

Fred Drake 0bf6845450 Fix previous nit to really do the right thing. 1998-01-09 16:26:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 60a3d2788e Consistency: Always use lower-case markup; one tag was still given in
uppercase.  (Makes it easier to see what markup is generated by the
	Python manual support and what is generated by standard latex2html.)
1998-01-09 14:39:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 0fd8268189 Revise prologue and frontmatter to use latex2e (not in 2.09 compatibility
mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.

Change "C" to "\C{}" and "\code{NULL}" to "\NULL{}" everywhere for consistency
and control.

Started a description of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords().
1998-01-09 05:39:38 +00:00

mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.
1998-01-09 05:36:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 031ad4b2a0 \mytableofcontents New macro. Wrapper around \tableofcontents that
does the right thing if the openright option is given.  Allows a
	lot of crud to be removed from the document files' frontmatter
	sections.

\endabstract		Extend standard macro.  (Called as \end{abstract}.)
	Does the right thing if the openright option is given.

\optional		Adjust to get the brackets right under latex2e.

Fred Drake 46fbd7f4a0 Nit. 1998-01-09 05:22:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 3c3d7ce7fe For consistency, always use a trailing "()" on function names in the running
text.

Add one index entry.
1998-01-08 04:00:30 +00:00

Added index entries & \label{} constructs.
1998-01-07 22:05:25 +00:00
Fred Drake c9a32ab26b Normalize some markup.

Fred Drake 1566a1d72c Added index entry for the protocol.
Fixed typo (extra char in the word "character").

1998-01-07 13:17:20 +00:00

Fred Drake 799484399d Fixed index entries to be more consistent. 1998-01-07 03:47:10 +00:00
Fred Drake c4586387f6 In description of \D, revise markup so that the caret shows up in the HTML
version as well as the dvi form.  Without the fix, it showed up as an extra
zero character.

Bug reported by Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk>.
1998-01-06 15:46:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 85a5c52752 Descriptions for PyRun_String(), PyRun_File(), and PyRun_CompileString() all
gave the return type as part of the function field and used an empty return
type field.  Fixed.

Function name field for PyLong_FromString() included an asterisk at the
beginning of the function name field; removed.
1998-01-02 03:24:19 +00:00

Fred Drake da941ef27c Added support for storing information to build a module index.
Enhance the "theindex" environment to add an entry to the table of contents.
1998-01-02 02:57:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 875c807c92 In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals;
"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html
output (the font was right).  Changed to "\code{{\e}(}" variation, which
fixes both.  Breaks the .texi file generation again.  Oh well.
1998-01-02 02:50:13 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 8e94489882 Add a note that up to 1.4, translate() produced Emacs style syntax; in
1.5, it produces Perl style syntax.  Also change "Python's regular
expressions" into plain "regular expression" in the intro.
1997-12-30 04:43:36 +00:00
Fred Drake e33e903461 Updated release date to match boilerplate.tex.
Removed implied future availability of an info/texi version of the other
manuals (the word "yet").

Guido, you might want to check this file to see if any other changes are
required.
1997-12-30 04:42:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5de1eb9b84 Added ConfigParser.py to list of undocumented miscellaneous useful utilities. 1997-12-30 04:41:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dccc298e3d Took out some disclaiming text (even from the title!). Rewritten
abstract.  Alas, I didn't get to do anything else before the release
:-(
1997-12-30 04:40:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5b8a523538 A whole bunch of typos fixed by Andrew Kuchling.
Added a warning about the incompleteness to the front.
Added a reminder about CObject to the back.
1997-12-30 04:38:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5b943ca1a9 Set the release date for 1.5 (final). 1997-12-30 04:29:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 13704a8928 Added .PHONY annotation for lib.info target; the real target is
python-lib.info.  The annotation is needed to prevent at least GNU make from
building a second set of info files with the lib.info base name.
1997-12-29 22:04:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e66e9c5562 Remove more commented-out text that is no longer needed. 1997-12-29 21:43:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29d3b9368c Remove the commented-out warning at the top. It shouldn't be there
for the 1.5 release version of the file.
1997-12-29 21:42:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 43c9350f7a Getting uglier. But it doesn't completely bomb except for some table stuff.
I'll get to it when I can.
1997-12-29 21:40:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 78f8e98232 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
step.

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call.  It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 6810a29c64 Ignore generated info files. 1997-12-29 21:37:21 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 9cb64803aa Added Greg Stein's docs for BaseHTTPServer.py.
Moved docs for "re" to before docs for "regex".
1997-12-29 20:01:55 +00:00
Fred Drake b0744c5a28 Make "{" and "}" in code sample visible instead of a group (it's supposed to
be a dictionary...).
1997-12-29 19:59:38 +00:00
Fred Drake bef9b0b039 Added missing "\" to "\var{address}, var{length}" in buffer_info() description. 1997-12-29 19:33:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 6884e3b94b Reduce warning count from partparse.py. 1997-12-29 19:09:37 +00:00
Fred Drake c416445d7e Use tableii environment for the table instead of tabular. This makes it
consistent with other 2-column tables in the Python documentation.
1997-12-29 19:02:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 671fe9dd31 Reduce warning count from partparse.py. 1997-12-29 18:53:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a3e672b574 Nit adjustments to remove warnings when processed with partparse.py. 1997-12-29 18:21:37 +00:00
Fred Drake f0867315e9 Normalized the word "Unix" to "\UNIX{}".
Changed "{\tt crypt}" to "\sectcode{crypt}" in section heading.
1997-12-29 17:31:22 +00:00
Fred Drake a4541af0ba A bunch of minor stuff.
Lots of support for new macros defined in myformat.sty; including the new
indexing macros, seealso environment & friends, and the byte code instruction
support.
1997-12-29 17:19:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 05dd3c09ab Added back info generation. Still buggy in the final phase (makeinfo run).
Does not conflict with any other targets.
1997-12-29 17:17:54 +00:00
Fred Drake cc97454987 Added missing "\" to "var{P}.\var{M}" in load_module() description. 1997-12-29 17:16:24 +00:00
Fred Drake f3e6df1e2d Remove unneeded "{}" that confused makeinfo. 1997-12-29 17:11:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ccaaf1a08 Change name of temporary file to avoid possible filesystem issues; matches
similar renaming of the @buildno file elsewhere in the Python tree.
1997-12-29 16:58:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 1656d17c42 Changed all \verb\...\ markup to either \code{...} or \samp{...}. 1997-12-29 16:55:50 +00:00
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.
1997-12-29 16:54:11 +00:00
Fred Drake f9951818a6 Normalized the \seetext markup to match the only other instance: should be
"\seetext{...}" instead of "\seetext ...".
1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 45c9df6636 Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is
rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee358529e do_env_tableii(), do_env_tableiii(): Align the table in the center, just
like LaTeX does.  There's no need to diverge on this.
1997-12-28 03:41:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dd79bd3539 Checking in fixed PS, with A4 capability. 1997-12-24 18:32:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b9973d9060 Script to edit one line in the PS to allow A4 printing. 1997-12-24 18:31:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 7f96291ee2 Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to
two-column tables.  This improves the rendering of the HTML version on
(at least) some browsers.
1997-12-23 04:21:20 +00:00
Fred Drake d665e8b5b0 Removed unnecessary \small{} block; latex2html got it wrong and its no
longer needed for printed output.
1997-12-23 04:10:35 +00:00
Fred Drake d21759ba47 Removed unnecessary \small{} block; latex2html got it wrong and its no
longer needed for printed output.

Guido van Rossum 0148bbf966 AMK's latest 1997-12-22 22:41:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 9597daf220 do_env_tableii(), do_cmd_lineii(),
do_env_tableiii(), do_cmd_lineiii():  New functions to handle tableii and
	tableiii environments.

Small changes to not add a superfluous space between a function name and the
comma in the index.
1997-12-22 22:37:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e903aab833 Replace unprotected tilders by \~ -- an unprotected tilde is a
non-breaking space!
1997-12-18 16:28:56 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c6ef83f4 Change {\em ...} to \emph{...}; this seems to be the developing preference
throughout the manuals, and seems easier to read.
1997-12-18 15:56:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 616b23b2e4 img_tag(), top_navigation_panel(): Generate markup the same case as other
functions in this file.

for all three modules described here.

Added a \label{} for each of the two modules missing it.
1997-12-17 14:12:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a47bce54a6 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M".

referents.

Include "()" when naming functions in the text.
1997-12-17 14:11:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 9c483191d6 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M". 1997-12-17 14:08:01 +00:00

Fred Drake dccd9dbf52 Make the word "Module" in the section header start with an upper-case "M"
for both built-in and standard modules.  They were different.
1997-12-17 13:44:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 819b789f36 gen_index_id(): New function. Construct an index key such that the sort
is stable and the form is only defined in one place, since we do
	some fancy footwork with the keys to separate the defining instance
	of a module reference from other references in the HTML index.

make_index_entry():  Override the standard definition to use get_index_id().

make_str_index_entry():  Moved to myformat.perl; only needed there.

index_key_eq():  Override the standard definition.  Add key transforms to
	remove extra junk from the end of the keys; it was only there to
	maintain ordering.

clean_key():  Remove key transform no longer needed at this stage, because
	keeping it makes the sort unstable.

add_idx():  Add key transforms to undo the mess we do to separate a module's
	defining and reference entries.  Don't make the text bold.
1997-12-17 03:08:27 +00:00

	both the defining and reference forms.

make_str_index_entry():  Moved from .latex2html-init; it's really specific
	to the presentation.
