|
* From reading the source, it turns out that the setkey() method canBarry Warsaw1996-12-231-2/+3
| | | | | | take an optional string key, but if key is not given, the method does nothing! In the rewrite (see upcoming check-in), I left things this way, but here I document that this is the case.

* (libtime.tex): Merged in changes from Tamito Kajiyama.Fred Drake1996-12-131-48/+45
| | | | | | | (For those watching Python CVS messages: I checked in all of Tamito's other changes, but the mail delivery failed since the subject line was too long. The patch Tamito sent for the documentation has been completely merged in.)
* (lib<all sorts of stuff>.tex):Fred Drake1996-12-1319-38/+69
| | | | | Merged in many typo corrections and fixes to support GNU info processing; submitted by Tamito Kajiyama.
* Added quote_plus() and unquote_plus(), to do space/plus substitutionsGuido van Rossum1996-12-131-1/+11
| | | | | | for form field values. Also corrected substitution example (the original changed the spelling of "conolly" to "connolly" :).

|
* (libparser.tex): Added note that the line number for a terminal tokenFred Drake1996-12-051-2/+3
| | | | | | indicates the line on which the token ends rather than starts (a side effect of interpreting the parse tree nodes directly). Maybe I'll fix this for Python 2.0.
