Fred Drake e6fb1c4bd3 Added documentation for inet_aton() and inet_ntoa(), from Ben
Gertzfield <che@debian.org> (with minor changes).

(Should have been here instead of in the branch in the first place,
since these weren't in for the 1.5.2 release.)
1999-09-16 15:50:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ba58158c5 Added "import string" to a couple of examples that describe string
module functions, to clarify that the import is not automatic.
Suggested by Koray Oner <Koray.Oner@Eng.Sun.COM>.
1999-09-14 18:00:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 244ad3ca15 Name the parameter to expr() and suite() "source" instead of "string". 1999-09-09 14:16:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 8779f648d2 Added descriptions of the t#, w, and w# PyArg_ParseTuple() format
characters; these are the ones for the buffer interface.
1999-08-27 15:28:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ee4891c82 Update the instructions slightly.
Add a new section describing what each of the tools does, in general
terms.
1999-08-26 18:08:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f0279f439 Removed; no longer needed now that the other tools can handle entity
references directly.
1999-08-26 18:05:23 +00:00
Fred Drake abb158f56b feed(): Added support for ESIS '&' lines. 1999-08-26 18:04:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 1f33292542 Remove use of fixgenents.sh; no longer needed. 1999-08-26 17:57:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 3cf4eb4e3d Specify: \geq --> &geq;
\leq    --> &leq;
                \LaTeX  --> LaTeX       (just text)
                \TeX    --> TeX         (just text)
1999-08-26 17:56:47 +00:00
Fred Drake f6199edcd3 Conversion.subconvert(): Added support for "entityref" parameters
(must be named in the conversion spec.).

TableParser.start_entityref():  New method.  Use to support creating
        entity references via the conversion specification.
1999-08-26 17:54:16 +00:00
Fred Drake a20581c1e5 write_esis(): Added support for ENTITY_REFERENCE nodes. 1999-08-26 17:51:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 53eae8e81b convert(): Add support for ESIS '&' lines, and make sure we don't
silently ignore unrecognized lines.
1999-08-26 17:50:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e7f19200e8 Doco update from Sjoerd Mullender. 1999-08-26 15:57:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 2900ff9382 Added paragraph explaining that except clauses can't be empty; that
pass can be used if needed.  By Dan Wolfe <wolfeman@apple.com>.
1999-08-24 22:14:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 4c2533fe3c Added sentence "All exceptions must have an executable block."; from
Dan Wolfe <wolfeman@apple.com>.
1999-08-24 22:14:01 +00:00
Fred Drake b68a125d64 Added additional index entries.
Minor markup nits.
1999-08-24 20:16:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 76dd228f52 whrandom should come immediately after random, not before. 1999-08-23 20:12:11 +00:00
Fred Drake c924b8d976 Clarified start parameter to Py_CompileString, documented
Py_eval_input, Py_file_input, and Py_single_input.

Problems reported by Aaron Brancotti <aaron@icona.it>.
1999-08-23 18:57:25 +00:00
Fred Drake abf8a1daa8 rewrite_descriptor(): Fix bug that dropped the first TEXT node from
<description> elements.  Add another sanity
                       check to make sure a special case only becomes
                       involved for <opcodedesc> and <opcodedescni>
                       elements.

fixup_paras_helper():  Clean up control flow.

Everywhere that checks node.nodeType==ELEMENT and node.tagName now
just check node.nodeName (nodeName is guaranteed for all node types
and will be special values that don't conflict with GIs for
non-ELEMENT nodes).  Simplifies a number of tests and improves
readability in a lot of places.
1999-08-20 14:28:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 7eba1d8bbe Tell what the result objects are (based on comment from the list). 1999-08-19 17:00:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 9ed56de752 Added item regarding random/whrandom. 1999-08-19 15:37:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b3fc9d148d Added disclaimer to the sleep() function. 1999-08-19 14:42:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 31e5e37196 Explain the possible range of values for the pid parameter to
waitpid().
1999-08-13 13:36:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 68921dfa31 In note mentioning [].remove()'s exception, tell what exception is
raised.  Prompted by Barry's whining.  ;-0
1999-08-09 17:05:12 +00:00
Fred Drake d3fbdfd007 Add index entries for open():
buffer size, I/O
	I/O control, buffering
	line-buffered I/O
	unbuffered I/O
1999-08-05 13:43:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 8c9fc00f8d Add index entry "I/O control, buffering" for fdopen(). 1999-08-05 13:41:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a94f6762bc Add index entry "I/O control, buffering" for makefile(). 1999-08-05 13:41:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 58c5a2a53c Started documentation on buffer objects & types. Very preliminary.
Greg Stein:  Please help with this; it's your baby!
1999-08-04 13:13:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 068bdb181d Change the directory tree walking example to use clearer variable
names, some suggested by Joe Ellsworth.
1999-08-03 21:52:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 46ab6dfa89 Re-write in Python for portability. About 30% slower, but who cares?! 1999-08-03 17:54:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 82ebc27357 remap_element_names(): Only used for things that the new conversion
engine in latex2esis.py can do, so discard it.

paragraph detection & markup:  Handle some of the list-like
		environments properly, picking up paragraphs inside
		list items.  (Only changed a few element-sets used for
		recognition.)

fixup_refmodindexes_chunk():  Use the right attribute to determine the
		module a <ref*modindex/> element is referring to.

convert():  Don't call remap_element_names(); it was removed.
1999-08-03 15:32:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 2f6ec9ca81 The new conversion engine supports more of the table re-writing than
the old one, so use it.
1999-08-03 15:27:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 32bc45f737 Removed PyMapping_Clear() -- it was wishful thinking and serves no
great purpose.
1999-08-02 20:49:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 83c0983bf6 Use the mksourcepgk script instead of mktarball.sh. 1999-08-02 20:20:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 9ff3a6a6e7 Remove obsolete version of script. 1999-08-02 20:19:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 9f2b42080a Re-implementation of mktarball.sh as a more portable Python script;
with a more descriptive name.

Allow creation of multiple archive formats with a single pass; useful
in this case since it uses a fresh export/checkout from CVS to ensure
that the tree is "clean" (no build turds, saved files, &c).  Use --all
to create all supported formats.
1999-08-02 20:19:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 080c1b5af6 bwrite(), ewrite(): Helpers for diagnostic output; essentially the
same as sys.stderr.write(), but bwrite() will make it
		bold if stderr is a tty (for visibility).

		Use these everywhere instead of accessing
		sys.stderr.write() directly.

find_all_child_elements():  Find all elements by type name that are
		immediate children of another.

cleanup_synopses():  Receive both the document and fragment objects as
		parameters; if only the document is passed, synopsis
		information is never found since it's in the fragment!

build_para():	Add a chunk of code to ensure that a newline always
		follows the </para> end-tag.  Not really important, but
		makes presentation consistent for authoring/
		maintenance.

fixup_bifuncindexes_chunk(): Use find_all_child_elements() instead of
		find_all_elements() so we don't work with too many
		levels at once; that could cause DOM exceptions with
		the <elem>.removeChild() method.
1999-08-02 14:46:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 4fbdf9779c Mostly minor changes.
Removed some obsolete commented-out code.

Merged BaseConversion into Conversion since there's only one
conversion process now.

Remove push/pop of output stream; it's no longer needed.
1999-08-02 14:35:25 +00:00
Fred Drake d158b85896 This doesn't need to do nearly as much for the new conversion, so
simplify.
1999-08-02 14:32:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 031e222499 A few small improvements to the conversion. 1999-08-02 14:32:11 +00:00
Fred Drake c71b802c47 Markup nits.
Adjust examples to use the object interface instead of the function
interface.
1999-08-02 14:30:52 +00:00
Fred Drake ce201128b0 Fixed hyperlink references to the __builtin__ and __main__ modules;
error reported by Dale Nagata <DNagata@creo.com>.
1999-08-02 14:13:09 +00:00
Fred Drake eac8abee4e Ripped out the old conversion. 1999-07-29 22:42:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 865e9ff98e Added a few more passes through the document fragment. Not actually
very interesting.
1999-07-29 22:23:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 96e4a06fa6 Massive changes.
Separate the Conversion class into a base and a subclass; the subclass
is pretty minimal but the separation is useful for....

NewConversion:  New class that implements a somewhat different
		approach to the conversion.  This uses a table of
		instances (rather than tuples) that have more
		information than the tuples used for the older
		conversion procedure.  This allows a lot more control
		over the conversion, and it seems to be pretty
		stable.

TableEntry,
Parameter:	New classes that are used to build the conversion
		specification used by NewConversion.

TableParser:	xmllib.XMLParser subclass that builds a conversion
		specification from an XML document.

load_table():	Convenience function that loads a table from a file.

main():  Added flags --new and --old; these select which conversion is
	 used.  The default is --new.

Several fixes have been made in the old conversion as well; these were
done before writing & switching to the new conversion, and should be
archived.

The next checkin of this file will discard the old conversion; is is
kept in this checkin to allow it to be retrieved if needed, and to
avoid lossing the bugfixes that have been made to it in the interim.

Fred Drake 2394c98c05 Minor updates. 1999-07-29 22:14:09 +00:00
Fred Drake ada2de67b3 Use the (new) buildFragment() method of the EsisBuilder rather than
implementing it all here.
1999-07-29 22:13:31 +00:00
Fred Drake f032cdbb24 Some minor cleanup. 1999-07-29 22:03:52 +00:00
Fred Drake bc2285eb60 Conversion specification, used by a new path through latex2esis.py.
The specific markup conversion is coded here instead of an even more
cryptic table in the code of latex2esis.py.
1999-07-29 22:03:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 478a265057 Minor update. 1999-07-29 22:01:39 +00:00
