* Improve descriptions of introspection changesNick Coghlan2014-03-081-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | Several of the introspection changes in Python 3.4 are indirect, where inspect module changes affected pydoc, and those in turn affected the help builtin. This update adds versionchanged notes in the key locations, as well as more coverage in the What's New document (in particular, a note in the porting section regarding the expanded domain for inspect.getfullargspec).

* Improve Pydoc interactive browsing (#2001). Patch by Ron Adam.Nick Coghlan2010-12-031-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * A -b option to start an enhanced browsing session. * Allow -b and -p options to be used together. * Specifying port 0 will pick an arbitrary unused socket port. * A new browse() function to start the new server and browser. * Show Python version information in the header. * A *Get* field which takes the same input as the help() function. * A *Search* field which replaces the Tkinter search box. * Links to *Module Index*, *Topics*, and *Keywords*. * Improved source file viewing. * An HTMLDoc.filelink() method. * The -g option and the gui() and serve() functions are deprecated.
* Fix usage of :option: in the docs (#9312).Éric Araujo2010-11-181-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | :option: is used to create a link to an option of python, not to mark up any instance of any arbitrary command-line option. These were changed to ````. For modules which do have a command-line interface, lists of options have been properly marked up with the program/cmdoption directives combo. Options defined in such blocks can be linked to with :option: later in the same file, they won’t link to an option of python. Finally, the markup of command-line fragments in optparse.rst has been cleaned to use ``x`` instead of ``"x"``, keeping that latter form for actual Python strings. Patch by Eli Bendersky and Éric Araujo.
* Issue #10446: Several changes to module documentation generated by pydoc:Alexander Belopolsky2010-11-181-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Online reference manual link is now version-specific and the 'MODULE DOCS' section renamed to 'MODULE REFERENCE'. 2. 'FILE' section is moved to the end of the file. 3. Special names processed by pydoc such as __version__ or __credits__ are now excluded from the DATA section. 4. Defined __all__ to prevent pydoc from exposing undocumented details about itself. 5. Removed Python 2.3 compatibility code.
