* Updated docs to list all the new methods and functions. The docs areAndrew M. Kuchling2000-05-231-188/+757
| | | | | | | now complete, but probably still not very helpful or friendly. Note: two very large tables (of key names, and of character names) were added; these tables format terribly, and need some reworking.

* The addition of rint() (by Peter Schneider-Kamp; I forgot to mentionGuido van Rossum2000-05-111-0/+1
| | | | | | that before) in the previous patch has one problem; rint() is not in the C math library on all platforms (e.g. not for VC++). Make it conditional on HAVE_RINT.

| | | | | | | | | The intent is that this diff adds a link to the rfc822 module doc and an index reference to this module under the rfc822 heading. Fred, based on a suggestion from Grant Griffin <grant.griffin@honeywell.com>: Added link to the MIME FAQ, so people can more easily get more information about the subject of the module.
