* 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.

* Make the reference to the os module in the module synopsis (for theFred Drake1999-07-011-1/+1
| | | | table at the front of the chapter) a hyperlink.
* Change the example of configuring for large file support under SolarisFred Drake1999-05-261-1/+1
| | | | | to use `getconf LFS_CFLAGS`. Steve Clift (the author of the section and large file support) agrees that this is the right thing to do.
* Reflow paragraph to work around LaTeX2HTML dropping a space.Fred Drake1999-04-211-6/+6
| | | | Make all references to the os module hyperlinks.

|
* Remove obsolete lines like this:Fred Drake1998-04-041-1/+0
| | | | | | | | \setindexsubitem{(in module frobnitz)} These are no longer needed when present before any other \setindexsubitem{} in the module section. The indexsubitem is now set by \bimodindex and \stmodindex.
* Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,Fred Drake1998-03-171-23/+23
