Fred Drake d2a5ad25d5 Removed some debugging prints: When running user configuration code
from Tk.readprofile(), do not print anything extra to stdout, just run
the code.

Fred Drake 10515b6483 main(): Move hackery of sys.argv until after the Tk instance has been
created.  This allows the application-specific Tkinter
         initialization to be executed if present.  Also pass an explicit
         className parameter to the Tk() constructor.

This closes SourceForge bug #110618.

Fred Drake 81c1735809 Add item to the list of limitations that points out the lack of support
for authenticated proxies.  This is noted elsewhere, but this makes it
easier to find.

Fix typo where it was already mentioned.

This closes SourceForge bug #110619.

Fred Drake ae90f8da24 Trent Mick points out that the BSD DB also provides an ndbm compatibility
layer.  If that is available, consider that as an option as well.

Greg Ward bbba66eb7d Added 'warn_dir' option so other code can sneak in and disable
the sometimes inappropriate warning about where we're installing data files.
2000-09-15 01:21:07 +00:00
Greg Ward 9bd3e9b6b2 Adjust to the new sysconfig regime: use 'get_config_vars()' instead
of globals from sysconfig.
Added 'prefix' and 'exec_prefix' to the list of variables that can be
  expanded in installation directories (preserving the stupid old names
  of 'sys_prefix' and 'sys_exec_prefix, though).

Greg Ward d602909128 Adjust to the new sysconfig regime: use 'get_config_var()' instead
of globals from sysconfig.
2000-09-15 01:19:03 +00:00
Greg Ward 59399bb303 Revamped 'get_platform()' to try and do something reasonably smart on
POSIX platforms, ie. get a little more detail than 'sys.platform' gives.
2000-09-15 01:16:14 +00:00
Greg Ward 879f0f11ba Changed from eager parsing of Makefile (at import time) to lazy: only do
all that work when someone asks for a "configuration variable" from the
Makefile.  Details:
  - added 'get_config_vars()': responsible for calling one of the
    '_init_*()' functions to figure things out for this platform,
    and to provide an interface to the resulting dictionary
  - added 'get_config_var()' as a simple interface to the dictionary
    loaded by 'get_config_vars()'
  - changed the '_init_*()' functions so they load the global dictionary
    '_config_vars', rather than spewing their findings all over
    the module namespace
  - don't delete the '_init_*()' functions when done importing
  - adjusted 'customize_compiler()' to the new regime
2000-09-15 01:15:08 +00:00
Greg Ward 3fff8d2969 Fixed so 'parse_makefile()' uses the TextFile class to ensure that
comments are stripped and lines are joined according to the backslash
convention.

Fred Drake f3d41272c6 Before running LaTeX2HTML, remove all the HTML files from the output
directory.  This avoids acretion of HTML from previous runs which may
have a new name; this would have avoided a lot of the packaging problems
related to changing labels from the old distutils documentation.

Fred Drake aaa238585f When there is a Module Index, make sure the icon actually links to it. 2000-09-14 22:20:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 4dfad57235 Add a reference to the sha module, noting that SHA is considered more
secure.  Suggested by Erno Kuusela <erno@iki.fi>.
2000-09-14 21:47:32 +00:00
Fred Drake b9fd468ded Convert "See also" section to use \seetitle. 2000-09-14 21:46:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 33e0beaf77 Did not include the sha module documentation dependency. 2000-09-14 21:42:38 +00:00
Jack Jansen 2d017ec9fb Added a note about gdbm.
Changed the stackless note.
2000-09-14 21:02:22 +00:00
Jack Jansen 965226bb36 Added a note about getting CarbonLib as a way to get a new Appearance/NavServices. Added Luc Lefebvre to the thanks-list. 2000-09-14 20:58:24 +00:00
Jack Jansen 04b85498b8 Fixes that should make it possible to run Python on machines without NavServices installed. 2000-09-14 20:47:00 +00:00
Jack Jansen 5c204ae15f Fixes that should make it possible to run Python on machines without NavServices installed. Also weak-linked OT libraries so Python can run with extensions disabled. 2000-09-14 20:46:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ba0a3c30a Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>:
Minor fix in documentation of code module.
(Clarifies output destination for default implementation of the write()
method.)
2000-09-14 20:42:53 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 30a818196e cope with weird Content-Length values returned from servers by
ignoring them; e.g. Zope sometimes returns 13497L
2000-09-14 20:34:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a666b83c8 Remove reference to the stdwin-based windowed debugger, since stdwin
is gone.

Make a module reference into a hyperlink.
2000-09-14 20:32:17 +00:00
Fred Drake bd2d4f1252 Use the \setshortversion macro to specify the abbreviated version number.
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.
2000-09-14 20:28:26 +00:00
Fred Drake d5d0435617 Use \shortversion in a number of places.
This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.

Fred Drake 3cdb89d5ec do_cmd_shortversion(),
do_cmd_setshortversion():  Implementation for new markup.

convert_args():  New helper function.

do_cmd_optional():  Modified to understand when it is called from within
                    a convert_args() invocation.

do_env_funcdesc(),
do_env_funcdescni(),
do_cmd_funcline(),
do_cmd_funclineni(),
handle_classlike_descriptor(),
do_env_methoddesc(),
do_end_methoddescni(),
do_cmd_methodline(),
do_cmd_methodlineni():  Modified to use helper convert_args().

The convert_args() helper and related changes fix the generation of HTML
for the \optional markup, so that bogus </var>...<var> is not generated.
This closes SourceForge bug #113800.
2000-09-14 20:17:23 +00:00
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.

2000-09-14 18:12:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 66d32b1e12 Add some index entries to make it easier to find information on
%-formatting of strings.
2000-09-14 17:57:42 +00:00
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.
2000-09-14 16:59:07 +00:00
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).
2000-09-14 14:44:43 +00:00
Jack Jansen b15491ef14 Removed exceptions from the required modules (it's builtin nowadays)
Added _winreg to the non-required modules.
2000-09-14 13:36:06 +00:00
Jack Jansen 2cecd4115c Added Qdoffs and (optionally) icglue modules. 2000-09-14 13:34:20 +00:00
Jack Jansen 68f9d95c10 Added USE_IC and USE_PYEXPAT 2000-09-14 13:33:01 +00:00
Jack Jansen a5fa1ff8f6 Not relevant anymore, as pyexpat has moved to another maintainer. 2000-09-13 19:59:49 +00:00
Jack Jansen ea7ce10800 Include Numerical header files in developer distribution. 2000-09-13 19:58:40 +00:00

Barry Warsaw ddef8887db Include a link to Francois's po-utils. 2000-09-13 12:04:47 +00:00
Greg Ward 3a0310a328 Added --force (-f) option to force installation (including bytecode
compilation).
2000-09-13 01:02:25 +00:00
Greg Ward 1830b21186 Bump version to 0.9.3pre. 2000-09-13 00:44:09 +00:00
Greg Ward 8c56259a3d Fix install directories on Mac OS (now that the "install" command
does the right thing).
2000-09-13 00:12:37 +00:00
Greg Ward d75a276026 Fix install directories on Mac OS: now everything goes to
<prefix>:Lib:site-packages.
2000-09-13 00:12:11 +00:00
Greg Ward 1ed49eeb29 Changed/added a bunch of section labels so HTML files will be named nicely. 2000-09-13 00:00:58 +00:00
Greg Ward e24f05e25b Improve Windows and Mac OS-specific instructions for running the
setup script.  Also added a comment about how it *should* work on Mac OS.
2000-09-12 23:55:19 +00:00
Greg Ward 078fc0816d Typo fix -- it's 'ext_modules', not 'extensions'. 2000-09-12 23:08:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ac9b07963 Simplify some of the code. Use PyErr_Format() instead of sprintf(), etc.
Reduces lines of code and compiled object size.
2000-09-12 21:58:06 +00:00
Fred Drake e92cdba105 Documentation is good. Let's release more. 2000-09-12 21:08:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 0b25053ca0 Make this script handle PyVarObject* functions as well as PyObject*
functions.
