* Lots of new stuff for "module synopsis support." Public interface consistsFred Drake1998-07-231-51/+151
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of three macros, one which replaces some of the current conventions used in the module sections: \declaremodule: Requires two parameters: module type (standard, builtin, extension), and the module name. An optional parameter should be given as the basis for the module's "key" used for linking to or referencing the section. The "key" should only be given if the module's name contains underscores, and should be the name with the underscore's stripped. This should be the first thing after the \section used to introduce the module. \modulesynopsis: Requires a single parameter: a short, one-liner description of the module that can be used as part of the chapter introduction. This should probably be placed just after the \declaremodule, but may be placed anywhere in the same section. \localmoduletable: No parameters. If a .syn file exists for the current chapter (or for the entire document in howto docs), a synopsistable is created with the contents loaded from the .syn file. Some re-organization due to module synopsis support. Some \def's changed to \newcommand's.

* \py@ModSynopsisFilename: New macro; gives names of the "current" .syn file.Fred Drake1998-07-231-0/+9
| | | | | \chapter: Extended, ensures that a pending module synopsis is written out and then closes the .syn file for the preceeding chapter.
* Ignore the new ".syn" files used to handle module synopses.Fred Drake1998-07-232-0/+2

* Document how to make a POST request with urlopen().Guido van Rossum1998-07-221-6/+25
| | | | | | | Change the argument name for quote() and quote_plus() to safe (which matches the implementation). Add doc for the *new* function urlencode().
* Add new syntax for specifying filenames on break and clear commands.Guido van Rossum1998-07-201-3/+12

* Complete the addition of libthreading.tex. (Isn't it annoying thatGuido van Rossum1998-07-202-0/+5
| | | | you need to edit four files in order to add one section to the manual?)
* Add libthreading.tex to LIBFILES.Fred Drake1998-07-201-1/+1
|
* Added libthreading.tex ; this is mostly the contents of threading_api.py,Andrew M. Kuchling1998-07-201-0/+561
| | | | with LaTeX markup added, and some small rewrites to improve the prose.
* Eric Raymond documents two already-existing functions (bmp, png).Guido van Rossum1998-07-171-0/+2
|
* Added item about index item/subitem separation.Fred Drake1998-07-081-5/+6
|
* Fix suggested by Lorenzo M. Catucci <lorenzo@argon.roma2.infn.it> to keep theFred Drake1998-07-081-1/+1
| | | | | large letter at the top of each index section with at least the first entry for that letter.
* In the example iterating over sys.argv and opening each argument,Guido van Rossum1998-07-071-1/+1
| | | | change it to iterate over sys.argv[1:]. Suggestion by Gerry Wiener.
* Rewritten a bit to address some criticism in the newsgroup.Guido van Rossum1998-07-061-31/+44
|
* Added back the description of the exec statement. It appears that IGuido van Rossum1998-07-061-0/+38
| | | | | | accidentally cut it out when removing the access statement! Added a paragraph on __builtins__ and other possible manipulations of the key space of the dictionaries. Added some index entries.

* Mark the actual SMTP commands (HELO, etc.) the same way FTP & NNTP commandsFred Drake1998-07-011-29/+36
| | | | | | are in the appropriate sections. Some minor nits.
* Added a section to the chapter on modules, describing the package system.Andrew M. Kuchling1998-07-011-0/+202
| | | | | | | | The text is almost completely from GvR's essay on packages; some introductory paragraphs have been removed, and everything after the 'Details' section in the HTML has been dropped (seems too technical). A paragraph has been added after the sample package layout stating that there must be a file called__init__.py in a directory to make it a package.
* Document __copy__() and __deepcopy__() methods.Guido van Rossum1998-06-301-1/+14

* Use the real name of the module: "smtplib", not "smtp".Fred Drake1998-06-301-56/+73
| | | | | | Use logical (& consistent) markup. Added a see-also section at the end.
* Note that readline returns '' on EOF, not "EOF" (whatever that may be).Guido van Rossum1998-06-301-1/+1

* Clearly I was to quick with the previous commit...Guido van Rossum1998-06-301-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too. Made x a \var in descr of pop. Fixed note for pop() and mentioned that it is experimental. Also added pop to index.
* Documented the pop() method for lists.Guido van Rossum1998-06-301-4/+9
| | | | # The brackets generated by \optional{} are real ugly. Alas...
* Documented os.linesep (line separator).Guido van Rossum1998-06-301-0/+7

* Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). AlsoGuido van Rossum1998-06-271-6/+12
| | | | | | document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit() vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is obsolete.
* Mark the 'whence' parameter of the file object's seek() method as optional;Fred Drake1998-06-251-1/+1
| | | | it's already decribed that way in the description.
* Removed loading of shared font stuff from howto.cls and manual.cls, moving itFred Drake1998-06-223-10/+13
| | | | | | | to pypaper.sty. Added the use of the "avant" package to use AvantGarde for the sans-serif font instead of the helvetica font loaded by the "times" package.
* Make the large letter at the top of each section use the sans-serif font,Fred Drake1998-06-221-1/+1
| | | | like any other header.
* Added texinputs/pypaper.sty to the list of manual style files, so that theFred Drake1998-06-221-1/+1
| | | | .dvi files are properly dependent on it.
* Fix unclear wording pointed out by Tim Peters, about the interaction betweenAndrew M. Kuchling1998-06-222-4/+6
