* Have strftime() check its time tuple argument to make sure the tuple's valuesBrett Cannon2004-03-021-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | are within proper boundaries as specified in the docs. This can break possible code (datetime module needed changing, for instance) that uses 0 for values that need to be greater 1 or greater (month, day, and day of year). Fixes bug #897625.

* Update to better reflect the usage of struct_time instances throughout;Fred Drake2003-02-041-24/+28
| | | | | continuing to call these "time tuples" is misleading at best. Closes SF bug #671731; will backport to 2.2.x.

* Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take noFred Drake2001-11-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | 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.
* Add additional information on exceptions from time.mktime() and related toFred Drake2001-10-291-2/+7
| | | | | improper time tuples passed to various functions. Based on comments from Andreas Jung.

* SourceForge bug #437041:Fred Drake2001-06-291-8/+8
| | | | | Use a portable format in the example that creates a timestamp suitable for use in email, also updating it and the footnote from RFC 822 to RFC 2822.
* Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the timeFred Drake2001-04-191-0/+5
| | | | | used to be omitted (meaning use the current time) as of Python 2.1. Users who need cross-version portability need to know things like this.

| | | | | | ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265.
* Added warnings about platform vagaries to the strptime() documentation.Fred Drake2000-09-231-1/+9

* Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hopeThomas Wouters2000-07-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-) I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an \index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{} does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a problem.
* Correct a markup nit that caused a space to be dropped from the HTMLFred Drake2000-07-061-2/+2

* Noted by Guido:Fred Drake2000-04-051-7/+7
| | | | | Fixed up descriptions of altzone and timezone not to refer to the 0th meridian, which doesn't exist. Reference is now to UTC.
