Guido van Rossum e0d7dae3b8 Add sys.hexversion, which is an integer encoding the version in hexadecimal.
In other words, hex(sys.hexversion) == 0x010502b2 for Python 1.5.2b2.
This is derived from the new variable PY_VERSION_HEX defined in patchlevel.h.
(Cute, eh?)

Guido van Rossum 6e0a3499ab Use PY_VERSION instead of PATCHLEVEL. 1999-01-03 12:41:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f1176c4815 New version identification scheme.
The version numbers are now exported by Python.h.
Also rolled back the API version change -- it's back to 1007!

Guido van Rossum 0c65e2504e Adapted to Unix (i.e., more hardcoded constants). 1999-01-03 00:47:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 47ae028071 Call PyInitFrozenExtensions() as requested by Mark Hammond (his patch). 1999-01-02 21:42:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 504b0bf066 Checking in IDLE 0.2.
Much has changed -- too much, in fact, to write down.
The big news is that there's a standard way to write IDLE extensions;
see extend.txt.  Some sample extensions have been provided, and
some existing code has been converted to extensions.  Probably the
biggest new user feature is a new search dialog with more options,
search and replace, and even search in files (grep).

This is exactly as downloaded from my laptop after returning
from the holidays -- it hasn't even been tested on Unix yet.

Fred Drake cd058539a8 Adjust a few niggles that affected the HTML conversion (a couple of
"^"s were being dropped in the context of [^...]).
1998-12-28 19:03:24 +00:00
Fred Drake d82af0b8ec Remove all use of $* in commands; some makes (Solaris 2.5, IRIX 6.X)
only expand this in dependency lists.  Thanks for Sjoerd Mullendar for
pointing this out.

Pick's emailed account.

Guido van Rossum 82eae9eaa7 Added mt_interact() -- multithreaded version of interact().
interact() automatically uses this on Windows (where the
single-threaded version doesn't work).

Guido van Rossum db01ee0e22 Patch by Mike Meyer:
Extended the rfc822 parsedate routines to handle the cases they failed
on in an archive of ~37,000 messages.  I believe the changes are
compatible, in that all previously correct parsing are still correct.

[I still see problems with some messages, but no showstoppers.]

Guido van Rossum 9a4d63730e Patch by Mike Meyer:
Add a class to mailbox.py for dealing with qmail directory mailboxes.
The test code was extended to notice these being used as well.
1998-12-23 22:05:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 99e1131536 Avoid crash in parsedate_tz() on certain invalid dates -- when the
field assumed to be the time is in fact the year, the resulting list
doesn't have enough items, and this isn't checked for.  Return None
instead.

Fred Drake 32f7ae0066 Fix many of the specific targets in links from the index.
In a number of places, I called next_argument() instead of
next_argument_id() when the ID was also needed.  (7 places)

Fred Drake 5cb48a4c98 Added a \versionchanged since the API changed to support
namespaces with 1.5.2.

Added an index entry.

Fixed XML expansion:  XML is the "Extensible Markup Language", not the
"eXtended Markup Language".
1998-12-22 18:46:13 +00:00

Guido van Rossum c822a453bd Add warning to Netrc's docstring that it is obsolete -- use the netrc

with documentation.)
