* The Macintosh Modules Reference now formats to GNU info without errorsFred Drake2003-07-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | (which is not to say it's right), so re-enable it. Documenting Python and Installing Python Modules still have problems when converting to GNU info, so we'll continue to leave them out for now.

* SF patch #761519: Fixes for bugs 760703 and 757821Raymond Hettinger2003-06-271-15/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together SF bug #757821: logging module docs Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item. Patched __init__.py - added new function makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703). Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and deleted some old commented-out code. Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord. Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both 760703 and bug 757821).
* A hack to ease compatibility with pre-2.3 Pythons: by default, doctestTim Peters2003-06-271-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | now accepts "True" when a test expects "1", and similarly for "False" versus "0". This is un-doctest-like, but on balance makes it much more pleasant to write doctests that pass under 2.2 and 2.3. I expect it to go away again, when 2.2 is forgotten. In the meantime, there's a new doctest module constant that can be passed to a new optional argument, if you want to turn this behavior off. Note that this substitution is very simple-minded: the expected and actual outputs have to consist of single tokens. No attempt is made, e.g., to accept [True, False] when a test expects [1, 0]. This is a simple hack for simple tests, and I intend to keep it that way.
* Don't assume the name of the table of contents will be contents.html;Fred Drake2003-06-271-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | that won't be right when mkhowto is called with --numeric (as it is for the Python Tutorial). Save the actual name we use when we build the table of contents, then use that in the page head metadata. The node2label.pl script will munge this properly when --numeric isn't given, so this works in both cases. Closes SF bug #761830.
