d623d20e7d
Complete the addition of libthreading.tex. (Isn't it annoying that
...
you need to edit four files in order to add one section to the manual?)
1998-07-20 17:34:50 +00:00
16440e63be
Added libthreading.tex ; this is mostly the contents of threading_api.py,
...
with LaTeX markup added, and some small rewrites to improve the prose.

Added a see-also section at the end.
1998-06-30 16:53:52 +00:00

Note that readline returns '' on EOF, not "EOF" (whatever that may be).

Clearly I was to quick with the previous commit...
...
Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too.
Made x a \var in descr of pop.
Fixed note for pop() and mentioned that it is experimental.
Also added pop to index.
1998-06-30 16:02:35 +00:00
97ea116472
Documented the pop() method for lists.

# The brackets generated by \optional{} are real ugly. Alas...

Documented os.linesep (line separator).

cd90509d58
As suggested by pson@pson.pp.se, correct the docs for head(), body(),
...
article().
1998-06-30 14:53:41 +00:00

73d8bff44d
Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). Also
...
document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit()
vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is
obsolete.
1998-06-27 18:25:44 +00:00
e5836d9811
Mark the 'whence' parameter of the file object's seek() method as optional;
...
it's already decribed that way in the description.
1998-06-25 16:26:56 +00:00
65b7863efc
Fix unclear wording pointed out by Tim Peters, about the interaction between

1998-06-22 15:02:42 +00:00
a7874d1505
Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable
...
goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it
doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type()
builtin...
1998-06-22 14:07:36 +00:00
1b0ff2c32f
eval() example: Removed final interpreter prompt; other examples don't have
...
the empty prompt.
1998-06-19 21:19:50 +00:00

bca1207ac8
Documented that by default the output goes to stderr, and that a file
...
keyword argument can be used to direct it somewhere else. Also
documented all the other functions in this module, and even added a
little example.
# Haven't tested the latex for correctness -- all latex installations
# appear broken.
1998-06-17 22:37:26 +00:00
777dcc6b21
Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent to
...
eval(raw_input(s)). The statement about breaking a long expression
over multiple lines is no longer true.
1998-06-17 15:16:40 +00:00

929bd0e02e
Added notes about epochs, the year 2038, and a small Y2K disclaimer

(all with index entries!). Also update the list of functions that
take or yield a time represented as a 9-tuple.
1998-06-09 21:25:41 +00:00
5d23758be7
Added docs for strptime().

(new!) contains.
1998-05-22 18:48:37 +00:00

Minor grammatical correction: "This module perform ..." --> "This module
...
performs ...".
1998-05-22 18:19:19 +00:00

Bow to font lock.
1998-05-14 15:16:12 +00:00
a4c640e142
Reverted the last change; the extra cruft is harmless for formatted versions,
...
and allows the info to work through this section.
1998-05-11 19:51:11 +00:00
02379fab61
Use \ldots, not \dots. The info process doesn't know about \dots.
