* require list comprehensions to start with a for clauseSkip Montanaro2000-08-222-6/+23

* Describe the new PRINT_ITEM_TO and PRINT_NEWLINE_TO opcodes.Barry Warsaw2000-08-211-2/+12
|
* 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!
* Strengthen the warning against using SerialCookie and SmartCookie.Andrew M. Kuchling2000-08-201-9/+12
| | | | | (If they're security holes, should they be documented at all?) Minor rewrites.
* 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.
* Add entry for Cookie module.Fred Drake2000-08-192-0/+2
|
* Make it format.Fred Drake2000-08-191-166/+177
| | | | | | Adjust markup for hyperlinking to the relevant RFCs. Give it a little organization. Minor nits.
* Initial revision. Markup unchecked.Moshe Zadka2000-08-191-0/+232
|
* As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()Fred Drake2000-08-181-14/+15
| | | | | | | | returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the source file they're implemented in. In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is described as obsolescent.
* Adjust the way __getslice__() is marked as deprecated; this will alsoFred Drake2000-08-181-2/+4
| | | | stand out more.
* Fix a markup error that caused formatting to fail.Fred Drake2000-08-181-16/+17
| | | | Lots of minor markup adjustments as well.
* Mention the new 'import X as Y' syntaxAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-0/+4
|
* Document the returns_unicode attributeAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-4/+11
|
* Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module importThomas Wouters2000-08-172-10/+21
| | | | | | | | 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.
* Apply SF patch #101029: call __getitem__ with a proper slice object if thereThomas Wouters2000-08-171-9/+18
| | | | | | | | is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types. Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new behaviour.
* Remove an item that's been done.Fred Drake2000-08-171-2/+0
|
* A little more text, and some really minor cleanups.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+10
|
* Small cleanups, and note when zip() entered the menagerie.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+1
|
* Revise the comments about the exceptions module to not refer to sourceFred Drake2000-08-171-4/+4
| | | | | code; it is not sufficiently readable now that it in written in C, and is less likely to be available to end users.
* Martin v. Loewis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:Fred Drake2000-08-171-0/+19
| | | | Document opcodes added to support extended call syntax.
* \citetitle: Format the title, not the optional URL!Fred Drake2000-08-171-1/+1
|
* Add section on list comprehensionAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-4/+120
| | | | | Comment out the unwritten XML section mymalloc.h -> pymem.h
* Ka-Ping Yee <ping@lfw.org>:Fred Drake2000-08-161-6/+10
| | | | Further examples of list comprehensions.
* Document socket.getfqdn().Fred Drake2000-08-161-4/+12
|
* Mention setdefault() method for dictsAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-161-0/+16
|
* Apply SF patch #101151, by Peter S-K, which fixes smtplib's passing of theThomas Wouters2000-08-151-0/+2
| | | | | | 'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python wrapper.
* Fix error made in applying Thomas's patch.Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+1
|
* Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+2
| | | | | Update the grammar to reflect the most recent changes to list comprehensions.
* Fix markup bug that prevented formatting.Fred Drake2000-08-151-7/+9
| | | | | Adjusted some markup for consistency with the rest of the documentation and creation of the proper index entries.
* Describe the b2a_hex() and a2b_hex() functions (a.k.a. hexlify() andBarry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+15
| | | | unhexlify() respectively).
* Added description of the md5.hexdigest() method.Barry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+5
|
* Correct the reference count information for the parameters ofFred Drake2000-08-151-3/+3
| | | | PyErr_Restore().
* Guido pointed out that all names in the sys module have no underscore,Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+1
|
* For bug reporting, point to the SourceForge bug tracker instead of theFred Drake2000-08-141-2/+2
| | | | old Jitterbug interface.
* Document the byte_order value in the sys module.Fred Drake2000-08-141-0/+8
|
* Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. OtkidachFred Drake2000-08-141-4/+24
| | | | <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>.
* In the section on the "Very High Level Layer", address concerns brought upFred Drake2000-08-141-0/+9
| | | | | | | | by Edward K. Ream <edream@users.sourceforge.net> about FILE* values and incompatible C libraries in dynamically linked extensions. It is not clear (to me) how realistic the issue is, but it is better documented than not. This closes SourceForge bug #111520.
* Fix some markup errors that prevented formatting, and one that didn't.Fred Drake2000-08-121-4/+5
|
* list comprehensions. seeSkip Montanaro2000-08-122-5/+35
| | | | | | http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=100654&group_id=5470 for details.
* Added information for PyEval_EvalCode().Fred Drake2000-08-121-2/+7
| | | | Fixed a couple of typos (new references are represented by "+1", not "1").
* Added Marc-Andre Lemburg's documentation for string methods, with someFred Drake2000-08-121-23/+216
| | | | | | | | massaging for markup consistency. This closes SourceForge patch #101063. Added Unicode strings and buffer objects to the list of sequence types. Small markup nits elsewhere.
* Merge UNPACK_LIST and UNPACK_TUPLE into a single UNPACK_SEQUENCE, since theyThomas Wouters2000-08-111-4/+4
| | | | | | | did the same anyway. I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?
* PyRun_InteractiveOne(),Fred Drake2000-08-111-2/+20
| | | | | | | | PyRun_InteractiveLoop(): Added descriptions. PyExc_WindowsError: Added to list of standard exceptions and added note about the right preprocessor symbol to use to protect code that uses it.
* Some minor clarifications and added some index entries.Fred Drake2000-08-111-20/+22
|
* O_BINARY: Documented this constant; omission noted by David Ascher.Fred Drake2000-08-111-1/+8
| | | | | access(): Corrected availability statement; error pointed out by Tim Peters.
* do_env_cfuncdesc(): Push as much of the generated HTML into one placeFred Drake2000-08-111-8/+8
| | | | as possible for better readability. Revise a comment.
* getopt(): revise description of long_options parameter slightly so it willFred Drake2000-08-111-19/+43
| | | | | | | | | | be less confusing; add a paragraph separation so that comments about the options and long_options parameters don't have references that are easily misinterpreted. Adjust the interactive examples to not need the string module. Add an example showing how the module is commonly used in a script.
* Added material about documenting packages, so that the use of moduleFred Drake2000-08-111-0/+20
| | | | markup for packages is clear.
* Include the document dependencies earlier so that documents are rebuiltFred Drake2000-08-111-2/+2
| | | | when they need to be.
* Markup errors: \cfuntion -> \cfunctionFred Drake2000-08-111-3/+3
