* Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take noFred Drake2001-11-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.
* CVS patch #477161: New "access" keyword for mmap, from Jay T Miller.Tim Peters2001-11-131-62/+100
| | | | | | | | | | This gives mmap() on Windows the ability to create read-only, write- through and copy-on-write mmaps. A new keyword argument is introduced because the mmap() signatures diverged between Windows and Unix, so while they (now) both support this functionality, there wasn't a way to spell it in a common way without introducing a new spelling gimmick. The old spellings are still accepted, so there isn't a backward- compatibility issue here.
