* Added --image-type option to allow use of either GIF or PNG images.Fred Drake1999-09-221-11/+38
| | | | | | | | | Job.warning(): New method; use this instead of writing to sys.stderr directly. Ensures warnings are also sent to the log file. Job.log(): New method; write a message to the log file. Use from .message() and .warning().
* Some updates to allow ../tools/mkhowto to add various bits to theFred Drake1999-09-221-46/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | supplemental l2h initialization file it creates and still get all the right behavior. In particular, it can change the image type and icon location and not get inconsistent results. Some code to help suppress various navigational pages; this might be interesting when generating HTML to create HTML Help documents, since the navigation support creates confusing hits in the full text search. HTML Help also provides a lot of the navigational infrastructure, so duplicating it makes it more tedious to use.

| | | | | | | Gertzfield <che@debian.org> (with minor changes). (Should have been here instead of in the branch in the first place, since these weren't in for the 1.5.2 release.)
* Added "import string" to a couple of examples that describe stringFred Drake1999-09-141-0/+2
| | | | | module functions, to clarify that the import is not automatic. Suggested by Koray Oner <Koray.Oner@Eng.Sun.COM>.

* Conversion.subconvert(): Added support for "entityref" parametersFred Drake1999-08-261-0/+7
| | | | | | | (must be named in the conversion spec.). TableParser.start_entityref(): New method. Use to support creating entity references via the conversion specification.

| | | | | | Py_eval_input, Py_file_input, and Py_single_input. Problems reported by Aaron Brancotti <aaron@icona.it>.
* rewrite_descriptor(): Fix bug that dropped the first TEXT node fromFred Drake1999-08-201-45/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | <description> elements. Add another sanity check to make sure a special case only becomes involved for <opcodedesc> and <opcodedescni> elements. fixup_paras_helper(): Clean up control flow. Everywhere that checks node.nodeType==ELEMENT and node.tagName now just check node.nodeName (nodeName is guaranteed for all node types and will be special values that don't conflict with GIs for non-ELEMENT nodes). Simplifies a number of tests and improves readability in a lot of places.

* Started documentation on buffer objects & types. Very preliminary.Fred Drake1999-08-041-1/+66

* Change the directory tree walking example to use clearer variableGuido van Rossum1999-08-031-11/+14

* Re-write in Python for portability. About 30% slower, but who cares?!Fred Drake1999-08-031-26/+61
|
* remap_element_names(): Only used for things that the new conversionFred Drake1999-08-031-32/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | engine in latex2esis.py can do, so discard it. paragraph detection & markup: Handle some of the list-like environments properly, picking up paragraphs inside list items. (Only changed a few element-sets used for recognition.) fixup_refmodindexes_chunk(): Use the right attribute to determine the module a <ref*modindex/> element is referring to. convert(): Don't call remap_element_names(); it was removed.
* The new conversion engine supports more of the table re-writing thanFred Drake1999-08-031-6/+9
| | | | the old one, so use it.
* Removed PyMapping_Clear() -- it was wishful thinking and serves noGuido van Rossum1999-08-021-6/+0
| | | | great purpose.
* Use the mksourcepgk script instead of mktarball.sh.Fred Drake1999-08-021-6/+7
|
* Remove obsolete version of script.Fred Drake1999-08-021-84/+0
|
* Re-implementation of mktarball.sh as a more portable Python script;Fred Drake1999-08-021-0/+139
| | | | | | | | | with a more descriptive name. Allow creation of multiple archive formats with a single pass; useful in this case since it uses a fresh export/checkout from CVS to ensure that the tree is "clean" (no build turds, saved files, &c). Use --all to create all supported formats.
* bwrite(), ewrite(): Helpers for diagnostic output; essentially theFred Drake1999-08-021-30/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | same as sys.stderr.write(), but bwrite() will make it bold if stderr is a tty (for visibility). Use these everywhere instead of accessing sys.stderr.write() directly. find_all_child_elements(): Find all elements by type name that are immediate children of another. cleanup_synopses(): Receive both the document and fragment objects as parameters; if only the document is passed, synopsis information is never found since it's in the fragment! build_para(): Add a chunk of code to ensure that a newline always follows the </para> end-tag. Not really important, but makes presentation consistent for authoring/ maintenance. fixup_bifuncindexes_chunk(): Use find_all_child_elements() instead of find_all_elements() so we don't work with too many levels at once; that could cause DOM exceptions with the <elem>.removeChild() method.
* Mostly minor changes.Fred Drake1999-08-021-52/+23
| | | | | | | | | Removed some obsolete commented-out code. Merged BaseConversion into Conversion since there's only one conversion process now. Remove push/pop of output stream; it's no longer needed.
* This doesn't need to do nearly as much for the new conversion, soFred Drake1999-08-021-24/+0
| | | | simplify.
* A few small improvements to the conversion.Fred Drake1999-08-021-3/+7
|
* Markup nits.Fred Drake1999-08-021-40/+33
| | | | | Adjust examples to use the object interface instead of the function interface.
* Fixed hyperlink references to the __builtin__ and __main__ modules;Fred Drake1999-08-021-2/+2
| | | | error reported by Dale Nagata <DNagata@creo.com>.
* Ripped out the old conversion.Fred Drake1999-07-291-367/+7
|
* Added a few more passes through the document fragment. Not actuallyFred Drake1999-07-291-11/+126
| | | | very interesting.
* Massive changes.Fred Drake1999-07-291-38/+478
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Separate the Conversion class into a base and a subclass; the subclass is pretty minimal but the separation is useful for.... NewConversion: New class that implements a somewhat different approach to the conversion. This uses a table of instances (rather than tuples) that have more information than the tuples used for the older conversion procedure. This allows a lot more control over the conversion, and it seems to be pretty stable. TableEntry, Parameter: New classes that are used to build the conversion specification used by NewConversion. TableParser: xmllib.XMLParser subclass that builds a conversion specification from an XML document. load_table(): Convenience function that loads a table from a file. main(): Added flags --new and --old; these select which conversion is used. The default is --new. Several fixes have been made in the old conversion as well; these were done before writing & switching to the new conversion, and should be archived. The next checkin of this file will discard the old conversion; is is kept in this checkin to allow it to be retrieved if needed, and to avoid lossing the bugfixes that have been made to it in the interim.
