Fred Drake 21e036ccca Add a note that the "kfm" controller supports "konqueror" as well as the 
old KDE 1 "kfm" command.
 2001-03-26 16:17:21 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 4240bc50f6 Note missing explanation 2001-03-26 13:34:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c8da0f966f Document use_rawinput. (Although now that I think more about it, a 
better solution would have been to factor out the raw_input() call and
make it into an overridable method.  Oh well, maybe later...)
 2001-03-24 19:17:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 8f6df46d40 Strengthen the constraints on calling PyObject_GC_Fini(). 2001-03-23 17:42:09 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton aa90adcfb9 Add nested scopes spec to appendix. 
Add new opcodes LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE to
docs for dis module.

Add docs for new function and code members in Sec. 3 of ref manual.
They're present regardless of whether nested scopes are used.

Remove description of default argument hack from Sec. 7 of the ref
manual and refer the reader to the appendix.
 2001-03-23 17:23:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 7190247e0b Remove the annoying __version__ definitions. 2001-03-23 17:09:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 3e8f921fb9 Lots of small changes to make this work with the Python DOM bindings 
(minidom in particular); it was using PyDOM which is now obsolete.

Only write the output file on success -- this avoids updating the timestamp
on the file on failure, which confuses "make".
 2001-03-23 17:01:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 2262a80fb3 Pick up the "encode" function from esistools instead of defining our own 
(broken) version.

Remove Conversion.err_write() -- use dbgmsg() consistently.
 2001-03-23 16:53:34 +00:00
Fred Drake a9d0450f72 No quotes around the "future" in the first use of the term "future 
statement".
 2001-03-23 16:47:11 +00:00
Fred Drake f6c115ff2f Re-write to no longer depend on an old version of PyXML. This now 
implements a SAX XMLReader interface instead of the old Builder interface
used with PyDOM (now obsolete).

This only depends on the standard library, not PyXML.
 2001-03-23 16:42:08 +00:00
Fred Drake a4699a71b8 Pick the "escape" function from the standard library instead of from PyXML. 2001-03-23 16:38:12 +00:00
Fred Drake ce19496ec1 Add conversions for more of the markup -- not all of this was around when 
this file was written!
 2001-03-23 16:29:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 7621fa9147 Add entry for the futures appendix in the reference manual. 
Correct the comment at the top of the file.
 2001-03-23 16:23:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 557c1ae150 Include the futures appendix. 2001-03-23 16:21:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 39778b705d Revise the markup so that this formats and uses markup consistently with 
the rest of the documentation.
 2001-03-23 16:20:46 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 324cc6ee0e Add some initial text for the appendix on future statements and nested scopes. 2001-03-23 15:29:54 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 2c84fc8a7d Note that assignments to __debug__ are illegal 2001-03-23 14:34:06 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton e702481d38 Revert to ver 1.22, which was the version before the nested scopes 
docs were introduced.  This loses a few small changes, but Fred says
that's okay.
 2001-03-23 14:05:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 16a0b17460 Bump version number. 2001-03-23 12:12:05 +00:00

Fred Drake 5e0dfaccd1 Update to the most recent weakref changes. 2001-03-23 04:36:02 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling ac1abe0bfe Add a paragraph about obmalloc turning up bugs in extension modules 
Mention the new ports
 2001-03-23 03:52:46 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling ef85cc84a0 Add section for PEP 241 
Add PyUnit and sys.excepthook
 2001-03-23 03:29:08 +00:00
Ka-Ping Yee b5c5132d1a Add sys.excepthook. 
Update docstring and library reference section on 'sys' module.
New API PyErr_Display, just for displaying errors, called by excepthook.
Uncaught exceptions now call sys.excepthook; if that fails, we fall back
    to calling PyErr_Display directly.
Also comes with sys.__excepthook__ and sys.__displayhook__.
 2001-03-23 02:46:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 6909642d38 Bump the version number. 2001-03-22 17:01:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 15e07f4442 Update to the current state of the universe. 2001-03-22 17:00:05 +00:00
Fred Drake e28d8aef2d Be more clear about the specific rules for supporting the cyclic GC in an 
extension object.  Also included an example showing exactly what needs to
be done and nothing else.

This closes SF bug #228591.
 2001-03-22 16:30:17 +00:00
Fred Drake c392b570db Integrated an expanded version of some text from Neil Schemenauer about 
supporting cyclic garbage collection.  (This is not all of it, but I'm
taking a break!)

Also fixed some markup nits.
 2001-03-21 22:15:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e6d09e369 Moved the description of the tzparse module to the "Obsolete" section 
and note that it fails when the TZ environment variable is not set.

This closes SF bug #409683.
 2001-03-20 23:13:53 +00:00
Fred Drake f531ad698c Markup nit: For the Python documents, we use \empt instead of \textit. 2001-03-19 04:19:56 +00:00
Fred Drake b15bbc8d3d Add documentation for SGMLParser.handle_decl(). 2001-03-16 20:39:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 83e01bf6c8 Finally fill in the documentation for the PyDict_Next() function. It is 
different enough to actually require an explanation.  ;-)

Fix a couple of PyDictObject* types that should be PyObject* types.
 2001-03-16 15:41:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 1b0b2a4df2 Add some LaTeX magic so that Latin-1 characters do not get so badly 
trashed.
 2001-03-13 17:56:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 93fe96a3c8 Py_BuildValue(): Add "D" conversion to create a Python complex value from 
a Py_complex C value.

Patch by Walter Dörwald.
This closes SF patch #407148.
 2001-03-12 21:06:31 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 45bbda2593 Fix a further markup problem noted by FLD 2001-03-10 16:49:07 +00:00
Fred Drake f0ebbe0bd0 Re-order some method descriptions for a more logical grouping. 
(Based on reader comment!)
 2001-03-08 22:46:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 9eb41557ef Add more font flavors for <var> elements; the previous incarnation caused 
some NT/IE5.5 users to see only boxes for these characters.  This might be
specific to NT Service Pack 6.
 2001-03-08 22:17:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 859eb62108 Do not refer to "sub-modules" since that is not a defined term. 2001-03-06 07:34:00 +00:00
Fred Drake ac79e95167 Re-word the explanation of the in/not in operators for increased content 
and clarity.

Add a footnote to the information on the possibility of shadowing builtins
with locals & module globals.
 2001-03-06 07:32:11 +00:00
Fred Drake ce7129ea4e Turn "Python Documentation Central" into just "Documentation Central"; some 
Web browsers tried to wrap lines in bad ways, so we avoid the problem by
putting fewer words on the page.
 2001-03-06 07:28:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 2636572d76 Make sure the README files that contain page count information land in 
the right directory (which actually exists).
 2001-03-06 07:22:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 67fdaa4883 Correct typos in Ping's email address. 
Remove premature use of negative indexes in string operation examples;
negative indexes have not been explained at that point, and the use of
negative indexes are not necessary for the examples.
 2001-03-06 07:19:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 990b0fec1a Update documentation to reflect the shift to NetrcParseError instead of 
SyntaxError.
 2001-03-06 06:55:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 0c8f6643c6 Remove debugging "set -x". 2001-03-03 19:57:26 +00:00

Fred Drake 6be838a0c0 Rene Liebscher <R.Liebscher@gmx.de>: 
Added information on using non-Microsoft compilers on Windows.

[Minor edits for markup consistency. --FLD]
 2001-03-03 19:18:01 +00:00

Andrew M. Kuchling 81df7be2a2 Update estimate bug and patch counts 2001-03-02 21:19:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f4e717c31 Revise the scripts I use to update the documentation on the SourceForge 
site.  These now seem (slightly) more reliable, and easier to work with
since update-docs.sh no longer needs to be installed ahead of time on
my account at SF.
 2001-03-02 21:05:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 93c867139f Lots of organizational changes for consistency with the rest of the 
documentation.

Fix a few small markup nits.
 2001-03-02 20:39:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 80d4c07775 There was a real leak in the "export a C API" example; fix that one. 
(There are too many initspam() functions; they need to be renamed
post-beta.)
 2001-03-02 19:48:06 +00:00
Fred Drake ab357ecf7f Label classes and exceptions explicitly in the documentation (for their 
*desc environments).
 2001-03-02 18:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 0539bfaaa4 There is no longer a -X option to the interpreter, so remove the comments 
on how PyErr_NewException() behaves in that case.

Clarify why an owned reference is kept in an extension module's
variable that refers to the result of PyErr_NewException(); one reader
thought that was a leak.

Clean up some tabs and simplify some markup.
 2001-03-02 18:15:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 043d5e5514 For copyfile(), be explicit that src and dst are file names; that was only 
implied.
 2001-03-02 16:46:42 +00:00
Fred Drake cfef0096f9 Job.build_html(): When formatting HTML into more than one HTML page, and 
not doing the \label{foo} --> foo.html transformation (--numeric was
    specified on the command line), still look to see if there is an
    "About this document..." node and copy that to "about.html", since the
    page footers use that as the target.
 2001-03-02 16:26:45 +00:00

Fred Drake a9a83e9ee3 Comment out section titles for sections that have not been written yet; 
there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents
in the online environment since LaTeX2HTML generates lots of tables of links
anyway.

Various markup consistency nits.
 2001-03-01 18:37:52 +00:00
Fred Drake a09262e860 Comment out section titles for sections that have not been written yet; 
there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Make the snippets of Python code conform to the standard style.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents
in the online environment since LaTeX2HTML generates lots of tables of links
anyway.
