* Patch 473512: add GNU style scanning as gnu_getopt.Martin v. Löwis2002-06-061-0/+12

* Fix up Guido's markup.Fred Drake2002-06-041-24/+24

* Add constants BOM_UTF8, BOM_UTF16, BOM_UTF16_LE, BOM_UTF16_BE,Walter Dörwald2002-06-041-10/+15
| | | | | | | | | | BOM_UTF32, BOM_UTF32_LE and BOM_UTF32_BE that represent the Byte Order Mark in UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings for little and big endian systems. The old names BOM32_* and BOM64_* were off by a factor of 2. This closes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/555360
* Addressed SF bug 421973 (finally).Guido van Rossum2002-06-031-46/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rewrote the subsection on coercion rules (and made it a proper subsection, with a label). The new section is much less precise, because precise rules would be too hard to give (== I don't know what they are any more :-). OTOH, the new section gives much more up-to-date information. Also noted that __coerce__ may return NotImplemented, with the same meaning as None. I beg Fred forgiveness: my use of \code{} is probably naive. Please fix this and other markup nits. An index entry would be nice. This could be a 2.2 bugfix candidate, if we bother about old docs (Fred?)
* SF bug 533625 (Armin Rigo). rexec: potential security holeGuido van Rossum2002-05-311-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode. Fix this by not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not allowed). I'll apply this to 2.2 and 2.1 too.
