* Added a --global-module-index option to specify a (possibly relative) URLFred Drake2001-01-093-2/+18
| | | | | | | | | to the Global Module Index for a set of documents. This is used to include a reference to the global index from the per-document module indexes, so that it is just a little easier to find. (Someone suggested this, but I do not remember who. Please let me know if it was you -- thanks!)

* Based on comments from Guido, do not describe bisect() and insert() asFred Drake2001-01-041-5/+5

* Oops. The value "0 or +1" for the category argument of PyErr_Warn()Guido van Rossum2000-12-191-1/+1
| | | | | | doesn't work. Make it 0. (Although it really *should* be 0 or +1 -- the refcount is incremented when it is raised as an exception, but not otherwise.)
