* Deprecate sys.exitfunc in favor of the atexit module.Raymond Hettinger2004-08-181-0/+1
| | | | | Per Guido, sys.exitfunc will be kept around for backwards compatability but atexit will become the one preferred way to do it.
* SF bug #951482: New module: doc versus actionRaymond Hettinger2004-08-171-0/+2
| | | | Strengthen the warnings about creating bogus objects using the new module.
* SF bug #805304: super instances don't support item assignmentRaymond Hettinger2004-08-171-0/+6
| | | | | | Document a nuance of super(). It is designed to work well with dotted attribute lookup but not with equivalent implicit lookups using operators or statements.

| | | | | | them (which they are now), I had to rewrite the code to understand it. This has got to be the most DWIM part of doctest -- but in context is really necessary.

* Excruciatingly slow progress on the docs. Option flags / directive namesTim Peters2004-08-121-54/+77

* added missing documentation for UseForeignDTD() (new in 2.3)Fred Drake2004-08-101-0/+21

|
* Bug 1003935: xrange overflowsTim Peters2004-08-081-9/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added XXX comment about why the undocumented PyRange_New() API function is too broken to be worth the considerable pain of repairing. Changed range_new() to stop using PyRange_New(). This fixes a variety of bogus errors. Nothing in the core uses PyRange_New() now. Documented that xrange() is intended to be simple and fast, and that CPython restricts its arguments, and length of its result sequence, to native C longs. Added some tests that failed before the patch, and repaired a test that relied on a bogus OverflowError getting raised.

* [Bug #984952] Include more material from PEP 307.Andrew M. Kuchling2004-08-071-30/+35
| | | | | | I haven't tried to include all the material on old-style classes using protocols 0,1. The details are lengthy; someone who knows more about the pickle module should decide if they're important enough to be in the docs or not.
