* Explain how come that pickle and cPickle, while using the same dataGuido van Rossum1999-01-061-0/+6
| | | | format, can produce different pickle strings for the same object.

| | | | was actually clearer!

* write_idxfile(): New function. Isolate format of the external indexFred Drake1999-01-051-95/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | data file used by buildindex.py. next_argument_id(): Removed; no longer used. next_argument(): Doesn't use next_argument_id(), just does the work. gen_target(), gen_target_name(): Removed, no longer used. The only place that used them now does the (trivial) work directly. Lots of little changes so we never have to pass around $br_id values all over the place. The only places they're used now new IDs are generated as needed.
* Added missing "from" in IOError description.Fred Drake1999-01-051-1/+1

* do_cmd_methodline(): New function, implements indexing version ofFred Drake1999-01-051-6/+30

| | | | complaint about 98.2b8 problems.
* Typo: "TWELV" --> "TWELVE"Fred Drake1999-01-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Added note at top, since LaTeX style writers like to force name changes when someone else makes a change to the style. I'm sending a note to the author reporting the error and asking for an updated version. This cannot be distributed in this form. This will be resolved when I get a response from Ulf Lindgren. Typo reported by rwolff@noao.edu (Richard Wolff).

|
* Print a line to the console reporting the number of index nodesFred Drake1998-12-281-2/+6

| | | | | only expand this in dependency lists. Thanks for Sjoerd Mullendar for pointing this out.
* Document 'N' format character for Py_BuildValue -- like 'O' but doesn't INCREF.Guido van Rossum1998-12-231-1/+6
|
* Fix many of the specific targets in links from the index.Fred Drake1998-12-221-7/+7
| | | | | In a number of places, I called next_argument() instead of next_argument_id() when the ID was also needed. (7 places)

| | | | Strengthen pointers to the search() function and method.
* Improve a couple of comments.Fred Drake1998-12-221-2/+3
|
* Use \moduleauthor and \sectionauthor instead of a comment to creditFred Drake1998-12-221-1/+2
| | | | the author (just happened to notice this one).
* Add an explanation about what the example does and doesn't do.Fred Drake1998-12-221-2/+7
| | | | | Fix an appearantly new behavior with latex2html with quoting. (Good incentive to work on the SGML conversion! ;)

| | | | | strings are not actually modified. Problem reported by Dr. Peter Stoehr <peter.stoehr@weihenstephan.org>.
* Add a bunch of index entries related to retrieving information fromFred Drake1998-12-211-0/+6
| | | | the process table.
* Sjoerd Mullender writes:Guido van Rossum1998-12-181-49/+59
| | | | | | | Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation. This version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in Python (also the one in 1.5.2a). This version supports XML namespaces.
* create_module_info(): New function: Modify a <section> to create aFred Drake1998-12-101-13/+99
| | | | | | | | | <moduleinfo> element based on various meta information, and strip some cruftiness. This is more usable for information extraction, and organizes the information more clearly. cleanup_synopses(): Rewrite to use create_module_info(), so this will work with multi-rooted "documents".
* Remove another {\rm ...} construct.Fred Drake1998-12-101-2/+2
| | | | Sheesh, where do these things come from?
* Don't pass around a list of known empty elements, since the ESISFred Drake1998-12-101-5/+6
| | | | contains "e" events for them. This wasn't used anyway.
