Fred Drake af2b71466a \shortversion,
\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.

Fred Drake 66d32b1e12 Add some index entries to make it easier to find information on
%-formatting of strings.

Jeremy Hylton 7ae51bf82d Remove "," from the list of always_safe characters. It is a reserved
character according to RFC 2396. Add some text to quote doc string
that explains the quoting rules better.

This closes SF Bug #114427.

Add _fast_quote operation that uses a dictionary instead of a list
when the standard set of safe characters is used.

Fred Drake d94f70716e Use the configure support to determine which ndbm.h header to include. 2000-09-14 15:48:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 641fbe66e7 Allow configure to detect whether ndbm.h or gdbm/ndbm.h is installed.
This allows dbmmodule.c to use either without having to add additional
options to the Modules/Setup file or make source changes.

(At least some Linux systems use gdbm to emulate ndbm, but only install
the ndbm.h header as /usr/include/gdbm/ndbm.h.)

Fred Drake e108a02723 Detlef Lannert <lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>:
mailbox.py (from the CVS tree) doesn't work with qmail Maildirs:
Filenames are completed when the directories are scanned, and
the directory name is prepended again in the next() method.

Another suggestion: Change the print statement in the _test()
driver to show two more date characters (probably the length
has increased due to the recent Y2K hype ;). Now it shows the
complete date, including the seconds -- at least for me. (I've
also made the sender field left justified, in case it is ever
shorter than the field width).

Fred Drake f913e542be Vladimir Marangozov <Vladimir.Marangozov@inrialpes.fr>:
Here are some changes to the C API docs. The memory examples & API have
been updated because one malloc family is gone (Py_Malloc).
You'll see other small additions to the "building new types" section
for completeness and some cleanup at the end of the memory section.

Tim Peters 0932cb4499 Windows installer: In the Start menu IDLE shortcut, explictly invoke the
pythonw.exe we just installed.  Making Windows key off the .pyw extension
instead screws people with multiple Python installations (reported more
than once on c.l.py).
2000-09-11 07:55:40 +00:00
