* When referring to namespaces, always say "namespaces" instead ofFred Drake2000-09-124-53/+54
| | | | | | "name spaces". Inconsistency noted by Keith Briggs <keith.briggs@bt.com>.

* When formatting the API manual, use the generated api.tex rather thanFred Drake2000-09-121-2/+2
| | | | the original, since the refcount information has been added there.
* Bastian Kleineidam: fix so it cleans up the temporary script-buildingGreg Ward2000-09-121-20/+13

* Windows installer: In the Start menu IDLE shortcut, explictly invoke theTim Peters2000-09-111-1/+2
| | | | | | pythonw.exe we just installed. Making Windows key off the .pyw extension instead screws people with multiple Python installations (reported more than once on c.l.py).
* Some updates and fix a bunch of really small consistency nits.Fred Drake2000-09-111-45/+38

* Add documentation for the \pep and \seepep macros.Fred Drake2000-09-111-6/+21

* Untabify. When compiling in -tt mode, an inconsistent Tab use errorFred Drake2000-09-111-408/+407

* Don't include various of the Lib:plat-* folders.Jack Jansen2000-09-101-4/+17
|
* The logic for finding long matches before short ones was wrong (why did I ↵Jack Jansen2000-09-101-7/+7
| | | | never notice this??!?), fixed.
* Updated for 2.0b1Jack Jansen2000-09-105-148/+126

* Patch for [ Bug #113828 ] getpythonregpath with null data in registry keyMark Hammond2000-09-101-8/+14
| | | | | | If there was a NULL registry key, Python could barf. Also wraps some surrounding lines to 80 chars.
* General cleanup in preparation for a bugfix: removed unused code, uselessTim Peters2000-09-101-65/+27
| | | | | | | | declarations, added some comments where I had to think too hard to understand what was happening, and changed the primary internal get/set functions to assert they're passed objects of the correct type instead of doing runtime tests for that (it's an internal error that "should never happen", so it's good enough to check it only in the debug build).
* Added --python and --fix-python options for better control over whatGreg Ward2000-09-101-16/+33
| | | | | interpreter the .spec file refers to. Cosmetic tweaks.
* Close SF bug 110826: a complaint about the way Python #define'd NULL.Tim Peters2000-09-103-11/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's hard to sort out what the bug was, exactly. So, Big Hammer: 1. Python shouldn't be in the business of #define'ing NULL, period. 2. Users of the Python C API shouldn't be in the business of not including Python.h, period. Hence: 1. Removed all #define's of NULL in Python source code (pyport.h and object.h). 2. Since we're *relying* on stdio.h defining NULL, put an #error in Python.h after its #include of stdio.h if NULL isn't defined then.
* The installer now displays info about version of distutilsThomas Heller2000-09-091-263/+278
| | | | | | | | used to create the distribution and the creation date. Takes care of the extra_path argument to the setup function, installs the modules into <prefix>/extra_path and creates a -pth file (like install_lib does).
* The windows installer must also look under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER keyThomas Heller2000-09-091-240/+240
| | | | for python installations, not only under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
* Do not try to fix bugs while sleeping.Fred Drake2000-09-091-4/+0
| | | | | | | | Paid more attention to the comments on the report; Martin suggested just not having a __del__() method, which makes more sense in this case. So I have removed it. This closes SourceForge bug #113850. Again.
* Kevin Jacobs <jacobs@darwin.cwru.edu>:Fred Drake2000-09-091-1/+2
| | | | | | | | The posixfile __del__ method attempts to close the file (_file_) it contains. However, if the open() method fails, then _file_ is never assigned. This closes SourceForge bug #113850.
* Fix for bug 113934. string*n and unicode*n did no overflow checking atTim Peters2000-09-092-4/+36
| | | | | | | all, either to see whether the # of chars fit in an int, or that the amount of memory needed fit in a size_t. Checking these is expensive, but the alternative is silently wrong answers (as in the bug report) or core dumps (which were easy to provoke using Unicode strings).
* Add support for new \pep, \seepep, excclassdesc markup.Fred Drake2000-09-091-9/+68
| | | | | | | | | Update processing of module synopsis tables (found at the beginning of most chapters of the library reference) to reflect changes in the processing pattern of recent versions LaTeX2HMTL. Requires most recent change to SynopsisTable.pm. This does not fix the module index problem.
* excclassdesc: New environment. For use in documenting class-basedFred Drake2000-09-091-0/+19
| | | | | | | | exceptions which have interesting constructor signatures. \pep, \seepep: New macros. Equivalent to \rfc and \seerfc, but referring to the PEP series instead of the Internet RFC series of documents.
* Add support for a filename to record the name of the node in which theFred Drake2000-09-091-1/+15
| | | | | table will be presented. Accessor methods are used to access the attribute.
* Add a reference to the material on string methods.Fred Drake2000-09-091-1/+4

* Various clarifications and minor nits fixed. Affected descriptions ofFred Drake2000-09-091-7/+21

* Really minor consistency nit.Fred Drake2000-09-091-1/+1

* Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making themFred Drake2000-09-091-7/+9
| | | | | | | | hyperlinks to relevant sections. Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access in user-defined classes).
* Minor clarifications in the introductory paragraph.Fred Drake2000-09-091-6/+7

* Add \modulesynopsis for inclusion in the list of modules at the beginningFred Drake2000-09-091-0/+6

* Move the "See also" section to a location more consistent with otherFred Drake2000-09-091-6/+6
| | | | | module sections. Properly mark the name of the module in the content of the reference there.
* Move description of UserString.MutableString to a location more typicalFred Drake2000-09-091-9/+9
| | | | of the arrangement of other modules.
* Add a brief section on linking Python as an embedded scripting language.Fred Drake2000-09-081-0/+37

* PyOS_CheckStack now understands multiple threads. Other threads are not ↵Jack Jansen2000-09-081-2/+14

* When building the HTML packages, make sure we pick up all the HTML filesFred Drake2000-09-081-3/+3
| | | | at the top level of the tree.
* Add a general "About" page and link to it from the index page.Fred Drake2000-09-082-0/+79
