* Implement os.waitpid() for Windows, in a way that's compatible with LinuxTim Peters2002-02-011-6/+21
| | | | | | where their capabilities intersect. Would be nice if people using non- MSVC compilers (Borland etc) took a whack at doing something similar for them (this code relies on the MS _cwait function).

* Add new constants usable with os.popen() on Windows.Tim Peters2002-01-301-0/+11
| | | | | | | | NOTE: this seems a mess wrt which symbols are available on which platforms. I can't fix it, but I didn't add to it <wink>, and included an XXX comment about names claimed to be available on Windows that aren't. If anyone can figure out the whole ugly truth, I'm sure a better organization will suggest itself.
* Revise cheeseshop example so that the order of the keyword output isFred Drake2002-01-291-1/+8
| | | | | | completely determined by the example; dict insertion order and the string hash algorithm no longer affect the output. This fixes SF bug #509281.

| | | | | | | | | | new.instancemethod() -- the instancemethod object is now a perfectly general container. This fixes SF bug ##503091 (Pedro Rodriquez): new.instancemethod fails for new classes This is a 2.2.1 candidate.

* SF patch #497420 (Eduardo Pérez): ftplib: ftp anonymous passwordGuido van Rossum2001-12-281-5/+2
| | | | | | Instead of sending the real user and host, use "anonymous@" (i.e. no host name at all!) as the default anonymous FTP password. This avoids privacy violations.

|
* Added some missing index entries, noted by L. Peter Deutsch.Fred Drake2001-12-271-0/+2
| | | | This should be included in Python 2.2.1.

* Fix wrongly-named formal parameters in three places: begin_y was used twiceFred Drake2001-12-261-76/+75
| | | | | | | | instead of begin_y and begin_x for derwin(), subpad(), and subwin(). Reported for derwin() by Eric Huss. Added class annotations for the window methods so they would be properly described in the index.
* Added another name.Fred Drake2001-12-261-0/+1

* Added index entries similar to some recommended by Skip, and used the wordFred Drake2001-12-261-8/+12
| | | | | | | "interpolation" in the text, to make the string formatting material easier to find. This closes SF bug #487165. Bugfix: this should be applied for Python 2.2.1.
* Make this do the right thing with entries which start with the percent sign,Fred Drake2001-12-261-30/+54
| | | | | | | | | in response to Skip's comments in SF bug #487165. Make use of string methods instead of string module functions in most places. Add (and make the default) a way to collapse symbol entries into a single "Symbols" section in the generated index. This is similar to what makeindex does, but does not include entries beginning with an underscore.
* More index entries.Fred Drake2001-12-262-1/+4

* Close an improperly-closed verbatim environment.Fred Drake2001-12-261-3/+6
| | | | | | | | This closes SF patch #496215. Add a little more detail to the example that had not been closed. Bugfix: this should be made part of 2.2.1.
