* Lots of minor fixes, many suggested by Detlef LannertFred Drake2000-09-211-7/+8

* Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:Fred Drake2000-09-121-0/+39
| | | | | | Reference manual docs for augmented assignment. This closes SourceForge patch #101418.
* Document "print >> None"Barry Warsaw2000-08-291-3/+4

* PEP 214, Extended print Statement, has been accepted by the BDFL.Barry Warsaw2000-08-211-0/+12
| | | | | Document the extended print form. Fred, please double check the markup!
* Disallow "import mod.submod as m", because the result is ambiguous. Does itThomas Wouters2000-08-191-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | load mod.submod as m, or mod as m ? Both can be achieved differently, and unambiguously. Also attempt to document this restriction (editor appreciated!) Note that this is an artificial check during compile, because incorporating this in the grammar is hard, and then adjusting the compiler to do the right thing with the right nodes is harder.
* Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module importThomas Wouters2000-08-171-8/+12
| | | | | | | | 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.
* More of Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes. The only ones left now are theThomas Wouters2000-07-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | distutils patches, which I'll leave to the distutils maintainers. Tip: review the patch like this: grep "^[\!+-] " <patchfile> To get a quick and easy way to review the actual changes. Most of the changes are single-line ones, anyway.
* Typo: "This table table" -> "This table is"Fred Drake2000-07-061-1/+1
| | | | Noted by Nicholas Spies <ns11@voicenet.com>.
* Added a note to the section on 'exec' about the need for a trailing newlineGreg Ward2000-04-271-1/+10
| | | | in certain circumstances. (Apparently, this is a CPython problem.)
* Typo: "Otherwose" --> "Otherwise" (reported by Joakim SernbrantFred Drake1999-04-141-29/+29
| | | | | | <joakim.sernbrant@front.se>). Misc. small fixes to the logical markup.
* Suggestion by Tim Peters clarifying what "before global" means.Guido van Rossum1998-12-211-1/+2

* Make sure all chapters, sections, and subsections have a \label to give themFred Drake1998-07-281-14/+14

|
* Changes copied from the FrameMaker version. Also documented someGuido van Rossum1998-07-241-83/+141
| | | | | | | previously undocumented features. Packages and the import mechanism in general are still left undocumented.
* Added back the description of the exec statement. It appears that IGuido van Rossum1998-07-061-0/+38
| | | | | | accidentally cut it out when removing the access statement! Added a paragraph on __builtins__ and other possible manipulations of the key space of the dictionaries. Added some index entries.
* Fix a bogus \code@...@ to be \code{...}.Fred Drake1998-05-061-24/+23
| | | | Normalize some other markup.
