* Really minor consistency nit.Fred Drake2000-09-091-1/+1
|
* Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making themFred Drake2000-09-091-7/+9
| | | | | | | | hyperlinks to relevant sections. Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access in user-defined classes).
* Minor clarifications in the introductory paragraph.Fred Drake2000-09-091-6/+7
|
* Add \modulesynopsis for inclusion in the list of modules at the beginningFred Drake2000-09-091-0/+6
| | | | | | | of the chapter. Add explanation that this is only available when the cycle detector is enabled at build time.
* Move the "See also" section to a location more consistent with otherFred Drake2000-09-091-6/+6
| | | | | module sections. Properly mark the name of the module in the content of the reference there.
* Move description of UserString.MutableString to a location more typicalFred Drake2000-09-091-9/+9
| | | | of the arrangement of other modules.
* \file is not allowed in section titles -- converting to PDF fails due toFred Drake2000-09-071-3/+3
| | | | | | | weird macro-expansion issues. A better solution may be available in the future, but this will do for now. Add an index entry. More should probably be added as well.
* Remove comment about -X and string exceptions. Error noted byFred Drake2000-09-071-2/+1
| | | | Justin D. Pettit <jpettit@raznick.com>.
* Added note about Python version this was added for.Fred Drake2000-09-071-0/+2

|
* add user-modifiable recursion_limitJeremy Hylton2000-08-311-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | ceval.c: define recurion_limit (static), default value is 2500 define Py_GetRecursionLimit and Py_SetRecursionLimit raise RuntimeError if limit is exceeded PC/config.h: remove plat-specific definition sysmodule.c: add sys.(get|set)recursionlimit
* Document the limitation that urllib does not work with proxies whichFred Drake2000-08-311-5/+9
| | | | | | | require authenication. This is an implementation limitation rather than required behavior, and may be fixed in the future. This closes SourceForge bug #111725.
* UNARY_NEG is supposed to be UNARY_NEGATIVE (spotted by Charles WaldmanFred Drake2000-08-311-2/+2
| | | | | | <cgw@fnal.gov>). Fix minor problem with EXTENDED_ARG description markup..
* New method getnamespace.Sjoerd Mullender2000-08-311-0/+5
| | | | | | Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them, we provide this method.
* Relocate the popen2 documentation since it is now substantially moreFred Drake2000-08-311-1/+1
| | | | portable.
* doc changes to parallel changes to calendar.py moduleSkip Montanaro2000-08-301-11/+46
|
* Markup revisions. Nothing was actually required to be able to format it,Fred Drake2000-08-301-54/+55
| | | | but many conventions were broken.

| | | | Minor cleanups.
* Revised documentation relevant to SourceForge patch #100837Fred Drake2000-08-251-12/+23

* Documentation for poll() interface (SF patch #100852)Andrew M. Kuchling2000-08-251-1/+76
|
* Rough and incomplete documentation on augmented assignment, which followsThomas Wouters2000-08-241-0/+59
| | | | shortly. Markup also needs checking.
* Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggestedGuido van Rossum2000-08-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__. In fact it must be done *before*. (Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)
* Move references to RFCs to a "See also" section for consistency withFred Drake2000-08-241-5/+16
| | | | other sections of the library reference.
* Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>:Fred Drake2000-08-241-0/+12
| | | | | | | Documentation updates for urlretrieve() and URLopener.retrieve(), to reflect Randall Hopper's patch for those functions. This closes SourceForge patch #100837.
* Charles G. Waldman <cgw@fnal.gov>:Fred Drake2000-08-241-0/+7
| | | | Update the dis module documentation to reflect the EXTENDED_ARG opcode.
* update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it worksSkip Montanaro2000-08-231-2/+4
| | | | | character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning prefixes that are not valid paths
* Describe the new PRINT_ITEM_TO and PRINT_NEWLINE_TO opcodes.Barry Warsaw2000-08-211-2/+12
|
* Strengthen the warning against using SerialCookie and SmartCookie.Andrew M. Kuchling2000-08-201-9/+12
| | | | | (If they're security holes, should they be documented at all?) Minor rewrites.
* Add entry for Cookie module.Fred Drake2000-08-191-0/+1
|
* Make it format.Fred Drake2000-08-191-166/+177
| | | | | | Adjust markup for hyperlinking to the relevant RFCs. Give it a little organization. Minor nits.
* Initial revision. Markup unchecked.Moshe Zadka2000-08-191-0/+232
|
* As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()Fred Drake2000-08-181-14/+15
| | | | | | | | returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the source file they're implemented in. In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is described as obsolescent.
* Fix a markup error that caused formatting to fail.Fred Drake2000-08-181-16/+17
| | | | Lots of minor markup adjustments as well.
* Document the returns_unicode attributeAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-4/+11
|
* Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module importThomas Wouters2000-08-171-2/+9
| | | | | | | | name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word. There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly undocumented.
* A little more text, and some really minor cleanups.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+10
|
* Small cleanups, and note when zip() entered the menagerie.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+1
