mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.
1998-01-09 05:36:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 3c3d7ce7fe For consistency, always use a trailing "()" on function names in the running
text.

Add one index entry.
1998-01-08 04:00:30 +00:00
Fred Drake fcda560e81 Fix a typo (the word "a" was spelled "c"!).
Added index entries & \label{} constructs.
1998-01-07 22:05:25 +00:00
Fred Drake c9a32ab26b Normalize some markup.
Use \file{} instead of \code{} for a directory name (Tools/freeze).

Consistently use "()" at the end of a function name in running text.
1998-01-07 18:57:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 6279fccf4c Fixed up index entries.
Adjusted one formatting problem (long \code{} in running text).
1998-01-07 13:23:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 1566a1d72c Added index entry for the protocol.
Fixed typo (extra char in the word "character").

Minor nits.
1998-01-07 13:17:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 15bac5d6e4 Added index items for the RFC and the protocol itself. 1998-01-07 13:13:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 799484399d Fixed index entries to be more consistent. 1998-01-07 03:47:10 +00:00
Fred Drake c4586387f6 In description of \D, revise markup so that the caret shows up in the HTML
version as well as the dvi form.  Without the fix, it showed up as an extra
zero character.

Bug reported by Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk>.
1998-01-06 15:46:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 0b1337d674 Add module index before the general index. 1998-01-02 02:59:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 875c807c92 In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals;
"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html
output (the font was right).  Changed to "\code{{\e}(}" variation, which
fixes both.  Breaks the .texi file generation again.  Oh well.
1998-01-02 02:50:13 +00:00

expressions" into plain "regular expression" in the intro.
1997-12-30 04:43:36 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 29d3b9368c Remove the commented-out warning at the top. It shouldn't be there
for the 1.5 release version of the file.
1997-12-29 21:42:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 78f8e98232 Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by
the info generation phases.  Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call.  It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00
Fred Drake a007c13094 Reduce warning count from partparse.py.
Removed BaseHTTPServer.py from list of undocumented modules.

1997-12-29 20:01:55 +00:00
Fred Drake b0744c5a28 Make "{" and "}" in code sample visible instead of a group (it's supposed to
be a dictionary...).
1997-12-29 19:59:38 +00:00
Fred Drake bef9b0b039 Added missing "\" to "\var{address}, var{length}" in buffer_info() description. 1997-12-29 19:33:45 +00:00

consistent with other 2-column tables in the Python documentation.
1997-12-29 19:02:01 +00:00

"\seetext{...}" instead of "\seetext ...".
1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 45c9df6636 Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is
rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 7f96291ee2 Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to
two-column tables.  This improves the rendering of the HTML version on
(at least) some browsers.
1997-12-23 04:21:20 +00:00
Fred Drake d665e8b5b0 Removed unnecessary \small{} block; latex2html got it wrong and its no

Guido van Rossum e903aab833 Replace unprotected tilders by \~ -- an unprotected tilde is a
non-breaking space!
1997-12-18 16:28:56 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c6ef83f4 Change {\em ...} to \emph{...}; this seems to be the developing preference
throughout the manuals, and seems easier to read.
1997-12-18 15:56:05 +00:00

undocumented (it has been).
1997-12-16 15:19:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e0799817e The \indexsubitem definition for the actual exceptions did not actually

1997-12-16 14:54:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d2f7d414d Oops, ".pythonrc.py" should *always* be marked with \file{}; one occurrance

Guido van Rossum c0cc6351e5 regex -> re 1997-12-15 17:53:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 095f35ad60 Changed \indexsubitem from ({\tt HTMLParser} method) to just

Fred Drake 1247ceab94 Changed \indexsubitem from ({\tt SGMLParser} method) to just

to cPickle.

Fred Drake e907208b30 Some reorganization (all limit operations & constants together, and all usage
functions and constants together).

Make explicit datadesc sections for each of the constants which might appear,
and have a description of each.  (Descriptions are based on the Linux
documentation and sources and the Solaris man pages.)

Hopefully Jeremy won't mind, because I didn't ask.  ;-)
1997-12-06 07:25:41 +00:00

Remove spurious underscore following book title.  Added specific reference to
a Win32 networking book.

1997-12-04 04:57:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 7381e28399 Fixed BINARY_RSHIFT documentation to indicate a right shift instead of a left
