* Fix for SF bug #415514: "%#x" % 0 caused assertion failure/abort.Tim Peters2001-04-123-25/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=415514&group_id=5470&atid=105470 For short ints, Python defers to the platform C library to figure out what %#x should do. The code asserted that the platform C returned a string beginning with "0x". However, that's not true when-- and only when --the *value* being formatted is 0. Changed the code to live with C's inconsistency here. In the meantime, the problem does not arise if you format a long 0 (0L) instead. However, that's because the code *we* wrote to do %#x conversions on longs produces a leading "0x" regardless of value. That's probably wrong too: we should drop leading "0x", for consistency with C, when (& only when) formatting 0L. So I changed the long formatting code to do that too.

* Bumping to version 4.0 since we now support only XEmacs 21.1 and EmacsBarry Warsaw2001-04-110-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 20.7, although not all of the compatibility code for older Emacsen has been removed. Specifically, the old "make sure we have a current custom.el library" stuff is removed, as is the hack-around for an NTEmacs 19.34.6 make-temp-name bug. Updated much of the Commentary section in the initial comments. Much more importantly, I've integrated Ken Manheimer's pdbtrack stuff, which is way cool. When enabled (as by default), this turns on the overlay arrow when pdb is entered, either in the shell buffer or in the *Python* buffer. Specifically: (py-mode-map): Added C-c C-d to toggle pdb tracking. (py-pdbtrack-do-tracking-p): New user customizable variable to control whether overlay arrow tracking is enabled or not. This variable is buffer local and is turned on by default. (py-pdbtrack-minor-mode-string): The string that's added to the minor mode alist when actually doing pdb overlay arrow tracking. User customizable. (py-pdbtrack-toggle-stack-tracking, turn-on-pdbtrack, turn-off-pdbtrack): New commands to control pdb tracking. (py-pdbtrack-is-tracking-p): Helper variable used to control the display of py-pdbtrack-minor-mode-string. Set to true when the overlay arrow is enabled, and false when it's disabled. (py-pdbtrack-stack-entry-regexp, py-pdbtrack-input-prompt, py-pdbtrack-track-range): Inherited from pdbtrack.el and renamed. (py-pdbtrack-overlay-arrow, py-pdbtrack-track-stack-file): New functions which actually do the tracking. (py-shell): Add py-pdbtrack-track-stack-file to comint-output-filter-functions. Finally, add py-pdbtrack-track-stack-file to comint-output-filter-functions at the file level. This and the py-shell addition should ensure that pdb tracking is installed regardless of the order of operation. Also, add py-pdbtrack-minor-mode-string to minor-mode-alist.
