* 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
|
* Revise the comments about the exceptions module to not refer to sourceFred Drake2000-08-171-4/+4
| | | | | code; it is not sufficiently readable now that it in written in C, and is less likely to be available to end users.
* Martin v. Loewis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:Fred Drake2000-08-171-0/+19
| | | | Document opcodes added to support extended call syntax.
* Document socket.getfqdn().Fred Drake2000-08-161-4/+12
|
* Apply SF patch #101151, by Peter S-K, which fixes smtplib's passing of theThomas Wouters2000-08-151-0/+2
| | | | | | 'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python wrapper.
* Fix markup bug that prevented formatting.Fred Drake2000-08-151-7/+9
| | | | | Adjusted some markup for consistency with the rest of the documentation and creation of the proper index entries.
* Describe the b2a_hex() and a2b_hex() functions (a.k.a. hexlify() andBarry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+15
| | | | unhexlify() respectively).
* Added description of the md5.hexdigest() method.Barry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+5
|
* Guido pointed out that all names in the sys module have no underscore,Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+1
|
* Document the byte_order value in the sys module.Fred Drake2000-08-141-0/+8
|
* Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. OtkidachFred Drake2000-08-141-4/+24
| | | | <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>.
* Added Marc-Andre Lemburg's documentation for string methods, with someFred Drake2000-08-121-23/+216
| | | | | | | | massaging for markup consistency. This closes SourceForge patch #101063. Added Unicode strings and buffer objects to the list of sequence types. Small markup nits elsewhere.
* Merge UNPACK_LIST and UNPACK_TUPLE into a single UNPACK_SEQUENCE, since theyThomas Wouters2000-08-111-4/+4
| | | | | | | did the same anyway. I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?
* Some minor clarifications and added some index entries.Fred Drake2000-08-111-20/+22
|
* O_BINARY: Documented this constant; omission noted by David Ascher.Fred Drake2000-08-111-1/+8
| | | | | access(): Corrected availability statement; error pointed out by Tim Peters.
* getopt(): revise description of long_options parameter slightly so it willFred Drake2000-08-111-19/+43
| | | | | | | | | | be less confusing; add a paragraph separation so that comments about the options and long_options parameters don't have references that are easily misinterpreted. Adjust the interactive examples to not need the string module. Add an example showing how the module is commonly used in a script.
* remove all occurence of math.rint() from the sourcesPeter Schneider-Kamp2000-08-101-5/+0
| | | | (and yes, "Currintly" also counts <0.5 wink>)
* More on noutrefresh.Eric S. Raymond2000-08-091-1/+3
|
* Tweak curses.wrapper so it initializes colors if they are available.Eric S. Raymond2000-08-091-4/+5
|
* Correct markup error.Fred Drake2000-08-091-2/+3
|
* Correct version number at which the curses.ascii module was introduced.Fred Drake2000-08-091-1/+1
|
* Fix a few markup errors and lots of small consistency issues.Fred Drake2000-08-091-42/+55
| | | | Add "See also" link to curses.wrapper module from curses module.
* Barry's patch to document the new setdefault() method. SlightlyGuido van Rossum2000-08-081-0/+8
| | | | | clarified the summary for default() in the table to indicate the side effect.
* Neil Schemenauer: GC enable(), disable(), isenabled() interface.Vladimir Marangozov2000-08-061-7/+19
| | | | | | Small stylistic changes by VM: - is_enabled() -> isenabled() - static ... Py_<func> -> static ... gc_<func>
* Documented curses.wrapper and curses.textpad.Eric S. Raymond2000-08-041-2/+131
|
* Break the "Python Services" chapter into two: "Python Runtime Services"Fred Drake2000-08-033-17/+29
| | | | | | (still at the start of the manual), and "Python Language Services" (late in the manual). Moved "Restricted Execution" to just before "Python Language Services."
* int() description: Fix markup to avoid image generation for math mode.Fred Drake2000-08-031-5/+6
| | | | | | zip() description: Fix broken markup, three small markup consistency nits, and one really minor usage nit. Introduce use of \moreargs instead of hardcoding "..." with \optional.
* Both PEP 201 Lockstep Iteration and SF patch #101030 have beenBarry Warsaw2000-08-031-0/+9
| | | | | | accepted by the BDFL. Added documentation for zip() builtin.
* Rob Hooft <rob@hooft.net>:Fred Drake2000-08-021-2/+8
| | | | Description of fcntl(): Added description of what can go wrong.
* As requested by Fred - mention that in the future a winreg module may make a ↵Mark Hammond2000-08-011-2/+3

* fixing a minor spelling mistakePeter Schneider-Kamp2000-08-011-1/+1
|
* Stop lying about [].pop() being experimental! There is no backing it outFred Drake2000-07-311-4/+3
| | | | at this point.
* added count, extend, index, pop and remove to arraymodulePeter Schneider-Kamp2000-07-312-2/+25
