* Re-arrange the modules in the "Internet Data Handling" chapter to try toFred Drake2001-11-281-9/+15
| | | | achieve a more sensible organization.
* Clarify that on some systems, lockf() using LOCK_EX requires that the fileFred Drake2001-11-281-4/+9
| | | | | | | is opened for writing; this closes SF bug #485342. Added notes that file objects are also accepted in the place of file descriptors.
* Add synopsis for the SimpleXMLRPCServer module; used in the chapter-levelFred Drake2001-11-281-0/+1
| | | | list of modules.
* Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take noFred Drake2001-11-2830-140/+140
| | | | | | | | 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.
* Typo, spotted by Detlef Lannert.Fred Drake2001-11-261-1/+1

* Tk-related modules should no longer be listed here.Fred Drake2001-11-261-13/+0
|
* Fix typo, extra markup constructs.Fred Drake2001-11-261-6/+6
| | | | This closes SF bug #485252.
* Rename get_referents to get_referrers. Fixes #483815.Martin v. Löwis2001-11-241-0/+7
|
* Update the platform notes for the CGIHTTPServer module; it works on moreFred Drake2001-11-191-3/+3
| | | | | platforms now, and has since Python 2.0. This closes SF bug #482943.
* Fix the default value for feature_namespaces, per discussions on the XML-SIGFred Drake2001-11-191-2/+2
| | | | mailing list. This causes the docs to match the default implementation.
* Paul Rubin reminds me that of course a class's constructor /could/ getBarry Warsaw2001-11-181-4/+6
| | | | called, if the pickler found a __getinitargs__() method.
* Clarified a couple of issues for the startElement*() handlers:Fred Drake2001-11-181-8/+18
| | | | | | | | | - the attrs value may be re-used by the parser, so the implementation cannot rely on owning the object. - an element with no namespace encountered in namespace mode will have a URI of None, not "" (startElementNS() only). Fixed a couple of minor markup issues as well.
* Relatively large expansion of the docs for gc.garbage.Tim Peters2001-11-181-5/+19
|
* Toughen up the security warnings a bit.Barry Warsaw2001-11-161-8/+13
|
* Add a clarification that the email package always deals in native lineBarry Warsaw2001-11-161-1/+13
| | | | | endings, and that it is smtplib's job to convert those to RFC 2821 line endings when sending the message.
* Clean up some markup a little bit more. Make this work with the PDF format,Fred Drake2001-11-161-43/+56
| | | | | which is a little more strict than the other formats on some things (fixable, but not tonight).
* Document the urlsplit() and urlunsplit() functions.Fred Drake2001-11-161-0/+19
|
* Switched a couple of sections around.Fred Drake2001-11-161-245/+279
| | | | | Cleaned up some markup nits. Add a few more of the Tk-related modules to the list of modules.
* A few minor updates to make it clear(er) that pickle should be usedBarry Warsaw2001-11-151-2/+8
| | | | | | instead of marshal for object serialization. Fred, please proofread!
* A massive rewrite affecting both the pickle and cPickle moduleBarry Warsaw2001-11-151-232/+610
| | | | | | | | documentation. This addresses previously undocumented parts of the public interfaces, the differences between pickle and cPickle, security concerns, and on and on. Fred please proofread!
* Minor updates to add more pointers to the pickle documentation, and toBarry Warsaw2001-11-151-1/+7
| | | | clarify some of the interface.
* The turtle docs will be moving to another location in the Tkinter chapter.Fred Drake2001-11-151-1/+0

* Clean up the descriptions of multi-signature functions so we do the rightFred Drake2001-11-151-15/+10

* Add entries for the new Tkinter chapter.Fred Drake2001-11-151-0/+3
|
* Tkinter chapter, contributed by Mike Clarkson. Based in part on the "TkinterFred Drake2001-11-151-0/+1674
| | | | Life Preserver" by Matt Conway.
* 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.

* When referring to a formal parameter from the description, use the name givenFred Drake2001-11-071-1/+1

* apply() documentation: Remove a detail about the implementation that doesFred Drake2001-11-071-5/+6
