| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Date: Fri, 20 Dec 1996 14:47:50 +0100 From: Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.eclipse.it> To: Python List <python-list@cwi.nl> Subject: Typos in ref manual Hi all, browsing the reference manual I noticed what seem two small errors: a) in the list of keywords (section 2.3.1) 'exec' is missing b) in the Operator Precedence table (5.12) the comparison operators include '=', but probably '==' was intended. Hope this help, lele.

| | | | | | | | | | | Migration to Frame 5.5. Checking in the PDF file. (This is questionable -- but we check in the Postscript as well. Perhaps *both* should be removed from the CVS tree, now everything is unbundled and we're distributing PS and PDF tarballs?) Note -- the HTML generation using webmaker is currently broken. I'll have to look into generating HTML from Frame...
