* 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 new default arg to groups() and new functions/methodsGuido van Rossum1998-06-291-6/+25
| | | | groupdict() and findall().

* Contributions by Eric Raymond: documentation for modulesGuido van Rossum1998-06-284-0/+428
| | | | cmd, multifile and smtplib.
* 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new LockType and reverse the preference for exit() vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is obsolete.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
| | | | | ^ and the pos argument to re.match(). Also, fixed a typo in libregex.tex.
* There's no point in mentioning F6 as an alternate EOF on DOS -- itGuido van Rossum1998-06-221-1/+1
| | | | | doesn't work on modern Windows systems, and Control-Z works everywhere.
* Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudableGuido van Rossum1998-06-221-1/+1
| | | | | | goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type() builtin...
* eval() example: Removed final interpreter prompt; other examples don't haveFred Drake1998-06-191-1/+0
| | | | the empty prompt.
* Somewhat updated, but not checked for everything (just the stuff I was using).Fred Drake1998-06-191-14/+15
|
* Added a stronger warning about changing the dictionary returned byGuido van Rossum1998-06-181-2/+3
| | | | locals().
* # Untabified the example :-(Guido van Rossum1998-06-171-2/+2
|
* Documented that by default the output goes to stderr, and that a fileGuido van Rossum1998-06-171-12/+111
| | | | | | | | | keyword argument can be used to direct it somewhere else. Also documented all the other functions in this module, and even added a little example. # Haven't tested the latex for correctness -- all latex installations # appear broken.
* Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent toGuido van Rossum1998-06-171-5/+1
| | | | | eval(raw_input(s)). The statement about breaking a long expression over multiple lines is no longer true.
* Some extra notes, and describe a new class (AddressList), all by ESR.Guido van Rossum1998-06-161-2/+44
|

* Added notes about epochs, the year 2038, and a small Y2K disclaimerGuido van Rossum1998-06-091-4/+19
