* Lots of stuff:Fred Drake1998-02-131-71/+126
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Handle most (all?) of the page style / numbering magic here so the documents don't have to do it individually. Revise the \bcode / \ecode stuff so that the {verbatim} environment handles it right directly. \bcode / \ecode will be completely removed from all files (to be checked in momentarily). Have the {verbatim} environment get the samples indented a bit; this appearantly had been attempted in the old code, but didn't work because paragraphs weren't indented. Make all headers, from chapters on down to subparagraphs, have sans-serif titles. \setindexsubitem{}: New macro. Replaces \renewcommand{\indexsubitem{}(...)} everywhere. This allows LaTeX2HTML to be made to work correctly for this. That was near impossible with the old mechanisms. For all {*desc} environments, make the name of the described thing bold as well as monospaced. {opcodedesc} environment: Don't index the byte code names; that doesn't seem terribly useful, and there are a lot of them. \var{}: More magic to make sure that the size is right even if embedded in \file{} or some other macro that uses the sans-serif font in running text. \bfcode{}: New macro. Makes the font \code{} and bold. (Was unreasonable using old LaTeX 2.09.) \file{}: Adjust the size of the sans-serif font a little. \email{}, \url{}, Make these use the same font as \file{}, but not the surrounding single-quotes. Update many comments. Lots of minor nits and a little cleanliness.
* parse_line(): Strip whitespace from the module name.Fred Drake1998-02-132-6/+4
| | | | | main(): Include a comma between the module name and page number, to make the generated index more like the "standard" generated index.
* Clean up some of the definitions related to info generation.Fred Drake1998-02-131-4/+8
|
* "ASCII" --> "\ASCII{}"Fred Drake1998-02-122-6/+6
|
* Added tarpdf target.Fred Drake1998-02-121-11/+22
| | | | | | | Don't remove *.texi & *.info for clean; only for clobber. Don't remake tarballs if not needed (PDF & PS only). HTML tarball is still painful.
* Reorganized a bit. No changed content.Fred Drake1998-02-122-1248/+1234
| | | | Guido, please take a look at new structure, at least the ToC.
* For sections describing the "Foo Protocol", consistently use the capitalizedFred Drake1998-02-122-4/+4
| | | | "Protocol" and not "protocol".
* Py_Exit(status) calls exit(status), not exit(0).Fred Drake1998-02-122-2/+2

* Mark opcode arguments \var{} in the running text.Fred Drake1998-02-122-22/+22

* Use new \authoraddress{}; author's name and address are now separate.Fred Drake1998-02-122-8/+12
| | | | | | Use new \release{}; this is now separate from \date{}. Use \email{} instead of \code{} for email addresses.
* Remove second index entry for UserList.Fred Drake1998-02-122-2/+0
|
* \rfcindex{}: Removed; no longer needed.Fred Drake1998-02-111-21/+136
| | | | | | | | | | | | \file{}: Use a sans-serif font for the filename itself. Use the fncychap.sty package for fancy chapter headings. Replace the \maketitle command with our own format. This is new, but it looks a lot better than the old one. Use \renewcommand instead of \def when extending or overriding standard LaTeX commands. This makes it more LaTeX-like.

* "lists objects" --> "list objects" (Section "More on Lists".)Fred Drake1998-02-112-2/+2
|
* In the appendix, all sections were marked as subsections, and so had sectionFred Drake1998-02-112-8/+8
| | | | numbers "A.0.#". Fixed.
* Add copyright.tex and boilerplate.tex to the common dependencies for .dviFred Drake1998-02-111-1/+3

* &do_cmd_rfc: New function. Handles \rfc{}.Fred Drake1998-02-101-7/+41
| | | | | | | | | $STRIP_INDEX_TT: New flag. If set, the <tt>...</tt> around stuff in the index is dropped. This is more O'Reilly-like. &make_str_index_entry: Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT. &make_mod_index_entry: Honor $STRIP_INDEX_TT.
* Removed all references to the \rfcindex{} macro; now only \rfc{} is used.Fred Drake1998-02-1012-70/+64

* Minor performance nits.Fred Drake1998-02-102-32/+36

* Include indfix.py script in lib.dvi's processing.Fred Drake1998-02-091-1/+2

* Script to fix up the Library Reference index so it's less ugly. The docstring:Fred Drake1998-02-092-0/+178
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | """Combine similar index entries into an entry and subentries. For example: \item {foobar} (in module flotz), 23 \item {foobar} (in module whackit), 4323 becomes \item {foobar} \subitem in module flotz, 23 \subitem in module whackit, 4323 Note that an item which matches the format of a collapsable item but which isn't part of a group of similar items is not modified. """ This results in a much more readable index, with less repitition of text; especially for common method names.
* Oops, missed a \POSIX{} in an index entry.Fred Drake1998-02-092-2/+2
|
* Add some index entries; switch to logical markup.Fred Drake1998-02-092-194/+200

* Consistently use \POSIX{} to denote POSIX. There were at least two differentFred Drake1998-02-0918-60/+60

* Do the right magic to make \ABC{} get sorted correctly in the index.Fred Drake1998-02-092-2/+2

* Use the new RFC macros wherever RFCs are referenced by number. No otherFred Drake1998-02-0924-58/+56

* Add macros to insert RFC references much like the \manpage{} macro. Also aFred Drake1998-02-091-1/+5

* Add a note about rounding up of readlines()' sizehint to 8K.Guido van Rossum1998-02-082-2/+4

* Document getrefcount().Guido van Rossum1998-02-072-0/+12

* \itembreak, \itemjoin: Remove unused macros.Fred Drake1998-02-061-18/+17
| | | | | | | | | \idxcode{}: New macro; used to mark things that would be \code{} for entry into the index. This allows easily switching things around for the font used in the index. (O'Reilly seems to keep it all plain roman in the index. Looks reasonable in the Python documentation as well.) \*index{}: Use \idxcode{} instead of {\codefont{}}.
* Remove commented-out \itembreak.Fred Drake1998-02-062-2/+0
|
* Update two of the \indexsubitem values to use singular rather than plural formFred Drake1998-02-062-4/+4
