* Replace "\begin{classdesc}{SomeClass}{\unspecified}" withFred Drake2001-05-112-3/+5
| | | | | "\begin{classdesc*}{SomeClass}" -- the rendering of \unspecified was identical to \moreargs, so this helps clarify things just a little.
* Fix typo in weakref.proxy() documentation.Fred Drake2001-05-101-1/+1
| | | | This closes SF bug #423087.
* Update example to no longer use the FCNTL module.Fred Drake2001-05-101-2/+2
|
* Remove all mentions of the strop module -- it has been pronounced Evil.Fred Drake2001-05-102-18/+7
| | | | | | (The string "strop" is found in the rexec documentation, but that should not be changed until strop is actually removed or rexec no longer allows it.)
* Update the fcntl module documentation.Fred Drake2001-05-091-30/+26
|
* Itamar Shtull-Trauring <python@itamarst.org>:Fred Drake2001-05-091-4/+5
| | | | | | | Updates zipfile.ZipFile docs to mention the fact that you can create a ZipFile instance from an arbitrary file-like object. This closes patch #418011.
* Work around limitations of the module synopsis table generation to avoidFred Drake2001-05-099-9/+9
| | | | | | leaking LaTeX2HTML's internal string munging. This fixes SF bug #420399.
* There is no IMAP class in the imaplib module; the class is IMAP4.Fred Drake2001-05-091-9/+10
| | | | | | | | There is no imap module; refer to imaplib instead, since it exists. Move the "See Also:" section in front of the sub-sections, for consistency with other portions of the library reference. This closes the library reference portion of SF bug #420216.
* Note that when inplace=1 existing backup files will be removed silently.Fred Drake2001-05-091-2/+5
| | | | Closes SF bug #420230.
* Michael Hudson <mwh21@cam.ac.uk>:Fred Drake2001-05-081-2/+3
| | | | | | | | Documentation update to reflect changes to the termios module (noting that the termios functions can take a file object as well as a file descriptor). This closes the documentation portion of SF patch #417081.
* The general iteration support is part of 2.2, not 2.1 -- fixed the versionFred Drake2001-05-032-2/+3
| | | | | | annotations! Also fixed a typo noted by Neil S.

* At the suggestion of Peter Funk, document 'key in dict' and 'key notGuido van Rossum2001-04-231-6/+6
| | | | in dict' after has_key(), with a \versionadded{2.2} note.
* Only document <file>.xreadlines() once; added version annotation.Fred Drake2001-04-221-7/+4
| | | | This closes SF bug #417943.
* Fix a number of minor markup errors.Fred Drake2001-04-213-7/+7
|
* Implement, test and document "key in dict" and "key not in dict".Guido van Rossum2001-04-201-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | I know some people don't like this -- if it's really controversial, I'll take it out again. (If it's only Alex Martelli who doesn't like it, that doesn't count as "real controversial" though. :-) That's why this is a separate checkin from the iterators stuff I'm about to check in next.
* 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.
* Cut-&-paste-o noted by Wolfgang Teschner: decompressobj() returnsFred Drake2001-04-181-1/+1
| | | | *DE*compression objects, not compression objects!
* Suggestion from Keith Briggs: refer to RE objects consistently instead ofFred Drake2001-04-181-10/+9
| | | | introducing a new term ("regex") without defining it.
* Add note about the version in which GetoptError was added -- this canFred Drake2001-04-181-0/+3
| | | | bite people interested in 1.5.2 compatibility.
* Work around the conversion of ">>" and "<<" to guillemets. Reported by Ping.Fred Drake2001-04-131-1/+1
|
* Minor markup adjustments.Fred Drake2001-04-131-2/+2
| | | | Turn reference to the cmd module into a hyperlink.
* Added a test main to the pstats library that can help you browse profile dumps.Eric S. Raymond2001-04-131-0/+5
|
* Added warning that FancyURLopener prompts the user on the terminal whenFred Drake2001-04-121-0/+21
| | | | | | | | basic authentication is needed. Added documentation for FancyURLopener.prompt_user_passwd(), explaining that subclasses should provide more appropriate behavior for the hosting environment.
* Added module synopsis for the chapter summary.Fred Drake2001-04-121-67/+186
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added documentation for TestCase.assertRaises(). Added text for "Mapping concepts to classes", and merged it into the front matter instead of separating it into a new section. Removed use of "assert" in examples. Update the descriptions to reflect further changes from discussions on the pyunit-interest list. Added documentation for the defaultTestLoader object and the TestLoader methods. Added the assert*() names for the TestCase helper methods.
* Convert several \seetext references to \seerfc and \seetitle versions.Fred Drake2001-04-123-19/+22
| | | | | These format somewhat better and include more semantic information in the source.
* Added a lot of text from Steve Purcell's HTML documentation.Fred Drake2001-04-121-29/+251
| | | | | | Updated reference material substantially based on discussions on the pyunit-interest mailing list (not all changes are in the code in CVS yet).
* Fixed bug in example.Fred Drake2001-04-111-2/+2
| | | | | | This closes SF bug #415522. Also fix markup error in text following the example.
* Added some additional documentation describing how BabylMailboxBarry Warsaw2001-04-111-4/+12
| | | | | | actually works (it returns a message containing the visible headers, not the original headers). Doc change approved by Fred; closes SF bug #412230.
* Include a synopsis for the chapter overview.Fred Drake2001-04-111-0/+1
|
* Fixing bug 405999 -- clarifying differences between Python'sMoshe Zadka2001-04-111-0/+4

|
* Start of documentation for the unittest module. Some of this comes fromFred Drake2001-04-071-0/+266
| | | | | | | | Steve Purcell's documentation, and a lot of it is written based on using PyUnit and reading the implementation. There is more to come, but I want to get this check in before I have a disk crash or anything else bad happens.
