* Note that __getitem__() may receive a slice object as the index;Fred Drake2000-09-211-2/+3

* Document directories are not always named with three characters any more;Fred Drake2000-09-211-7/+7

* .use_latex(): Make this a little smarter so that it only runs pdflatexFred Drake2000-09-201-31/+24
| | | | | once if all the temporary files are available from building a DVI file. This can avoid two runs of pdflatex.
* Clarify that the softspace attribute is used by print for state management,Fred Drake2000-09-201-0/+3
| | | | not as a user-controlled parameter.
* Add entries for the xml.sax documentation.Fred Drake2000-09-202-0/+2
|
* First cut at documentation for the xml.sax package (not including anyFred Drake2000-09-201-0/+108
| | | | sub-modules).
* This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()Marc-André Lemburg2000-09-192-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string object using the default encoding. The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924 and #113890. As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as parameters.
* Moshe Zadka <mzadka@geocities.com>:Fred Drake2000-09-191-0/+10
| | | | | | | Document the __contains__() method. (Patch slightly modified by FLD.) This closes SourceForge patch #101387.
* Many small clarifications, including many suggested by email.Fred Drake2000-09-191-17/+18

* make_nav_sectref(): Create more minimal HTML, hanging the class attributeFred Drake2000-09-191-2/+7
| | | | | off an existing anchor tag if available (I think it always is, but am not completely sure).
* Clarify a number of issues about the file-like object API based onFred Drake2000-09-191-20/+36
| | | | discussion on python-dev.

* Add missing \declaremodule for zipfile.Fred Drake2000-09-181-0/+1
|
* Repaired some glitches in the MD5 and SHA docs; copied the descriptions ofTim Peters2000-09-182-10/+31
| | | | | | the MD5 methods into the SHA docs (substituting "sha" for "md5", of course, and changing the stuff that depended on digest size accordingly). Fred, don't trust me!
* Added documentation for new functions.Fred Drake2000-09-171-3/+11
| | | | | | | Deprecated sequenceIncludes(). Based on patch by Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>, this closes SourceForge patch #101390.
* Make the <body> tag match those of the generated HTML; rely on the styleFred Drake2000-09-161-1/+1
| | | | sheet instead of encoding anything there.
* Document \cfuncdesc, \ctypedesc, and \cvardesc.Fred Drake2000-09-161-0/+28
|
* Push more of the display control into the style sheet.Fred Drake2000-09-162-3/+10
|
* Document new APIs PyOS_getsig() and PyOS_setsig().Guido van Rossum2000-09-161-0/+15
| | | | | | (Is there no macro to document a typedef?) Fred, please check my latex!
* Use a really ugly hack that depends on output processing by LaTeX2HTML.Fred Drake2000-09-162-8/+8
| | | | | This replaces the tilde character with the string ";SPMtilde;", which LaTeX2HTML converts to a tilde on output.
* Update URL to unicode.org's FTP site using an HTTP URL to the sameFred Drake2000-09-161-1/+1
| | | | document.
* Update *both* uses of the URL to the zlib home page, and use the versionFred Drake2000-09-161-6/+6
| | | | advertised as the canonical form.
* Update link to the zlib homepage.Fred Drake2000-09-161-4/+4

* Update some stale links.Fred Drake2000-09-162-8/+8

* Fixed legit gripe from c.l.py that math.fmod docs aren't confusing enough.Tim Peters2000-09-161-1/+3
| | | | FRED, please check my monkey-see-monkey-do Tex fiddling!
* Fix a link -- there is no starship.python.org!Fred Drake2000-09-151-1/+1
|
* Add some comments on the available implementations that this module canFred Drake2000-09-151-11/+25
| | | | | | | | use. Change the list of flag values for open() to a table. Markup consistency nits.
* add cross reference to mimetools moduleSkip Montanaro2000-09-151-0/+2
|
* Update comments in the second paragraph, discussing versioning issuesFred Drake2000-09-151-8/+9
| | | | | related to the BSD DB library. Based on comments from Mark Summerfield <summer@netcraft.com>.
* Add item to the list of limitations that points out the lack of supportFred Drake2000-09-151-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | for authenticated proxies. This is noted elsewhere, but this makes it easier to find. Fix typo where it was already mentioned. This closes SourceForge bug #110619.
* Before running LaTeX2HTML, remove all the HTML files from the outputFred Drake2000-09-141-0/+3
| | | | | | directory. This avoids acretion of HTML from previous runs which may have a new name; this would have avoided a lot of the packaging problems related to changing labels from the old distutils documentation.
* When there is a Module Index, make sure the icon actually links to it.Fred Drake2000-09-141-1/+3
|
* Add a reference to the sha module, noting that SHA is considered moreFred Drake2000-09-141-0/+7
| | | | secure. Suggested by Erno Kuusela <erno@iki.fi>.
* Convert "See also" section to use \seetitle.Fred Drake2000-09-141-6/+8
|
* Did not include the sha module documentation dependency.Fred Drake2000-09-141-0/+1
|
* Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>:Fred Drake2000-09-141-2/+3
| | | | | | Minor fix in documentation of code module. (Clarifies output destination for default implementation of the write() method.)
* Remove reference to the stdwin-based windowed debugger, since stdwinFred Drake2000-09-141-6/+2
| | | | | | is gone. Make a module reference into a hyperlink.
* Use the \setshortversion macro to specify the abbreviated version number.Fred Drake2000-09-141-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318. Fix the release number -- this is supposed to be the *Python* release, not the documentation release! The later is given by the combination of the Python release number and the date. Add a comment so I can keep it straight.
* Use \shortversion in a number of places.Fred Drake2000-09-143-12/+12
| | | | This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.
* do_cmd_shortversion(),Fred Drake2000-09-141-11/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | do_cmd_setshortversion(): Implementation for new markup. convert_args(): New helper function. do_cmd_optional(): Modified to understand when it is called from within a convert_args() invocation. do_env_funcdesc(), do_env_funcdescni(), do_cmd_funcline(), do_cmd_funclineni(), handle_classlike_descriptor(), do_env_methoddesc(), do_end_methoddescni(), do_cmd_methodline(), do_cmd_methodlineni(): Modified to use helper convert_args(). The convert_args() helper and related changes fix the generation of HTML for the \optional markup, so that bogus </var>...<var> is not generated. This closes SourceForge bug #113800.
* \shortversion,Fred Drake2000-09-142-2/+29
| | | | | | \setshortversion: New markup to help deal with Python having a "real" version number and an abbreviated version number used to create pathnames to the library installation.
* Avoid reference to specific versions of Python where possible.Fred Drake2000-09-141-4/+4
| | | | This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.

* Fix install directories on Mac OS (now that the "install" commandGreg Ward2000-09-131-13/+4
| | | | does the right thing).
* Changed/added a bunch of section labels so HTML files will be named nicely.Greg Ward2000-09-131-6/+10
