+# Makefile for Python documentation
+# ---------------------------------
+#
+# This is a bit of a mess. The main documents are:
+# tut -- Tutorial (file tut.tex)
+# lib -- Library Reference (file lib.tex, inputs lib*.tex)
+# ref -- Language Reference (file ref.tex, inputs ref*.tex)
+# ext -- Extending and Embedding (file ext.tex)
+#
+# The main target "make all" creates DVI and PostScript for these
+# four. You can also do "make lib" (etc.) to process individual
+# documents.
+#
+# There's also:
+# qua -- Paper published in the CWI Quarterly (file qua.tex)
+#
+# There's one local style file: myformat.sty. This defines a number
+# of macros that are similar in name and intent as macros in Texinfo
+# (e.g. \code{...} and \emph{...}), as well as a number of
+# environments for formatting function and data definitions, also in
+# the style of Texinfo.
+#
+# Everything is processed by LaTeX. The following tools are used:
+# latex
+# makeindex
+# dvips
+# bibtex (only for formatting qua.tex)
+#
+# There's a problem with generating the index which has been solved by
+# a sed command applied to the index file. The shell script fix_hack
+# does this (the Makefile takes care of calling it).
+#
+# To preview the dvi files produced by LaTeX it would be useful to
+# have xdvi as well.
+#
+# Additional targets attempt to convert selected LaTeX sources to
+# various other formats. These are generally site specific because
+# the tools used are all but universal. These targets are:
+# l2h -- convert tut, ref, ext (but not lib!) from LaTeX to HTML
+# lib.texi -- convert lib from LaTeX to Texinfo
+# lib.info -- convert lib from Texinfo to Emacs INFO
+# libwww -- convert lib from Texinfo to HTML
