* | Change Windows file.truncate() to (a) restore the original file position, | Tim Peters | 2002-03-12 | 1 | -13/+18 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | and (b) stop trying to prevent file growth. Beef up the file.truncate() docs. Change test_largefile.py to stop assuming that f.truncate() moves the file pointer to the truncation point, and to verify instead that it leaves the file position alone. Remove the test for what happens when a specified size exceeds the original file size (it's ill-defined, according to the Single Unix Spec). | ||||
* | Documentation for PyObject_GetIter(), contributed by Greg Chapman | Fred Drake | 2002-03-11 | 1 | -3/+18 |
| | | | | | (with only minor changes by Fred). This closes SF bug #498607. | ||||
* | Make the extension manual format using the Makefile; recent changes broke | Fred Drake | 2002-03-11 | 1 | -1/+1 |

* | file_truncate(): provide full "large file" support on Windows, by | Tim Peters | 2002-03-11 | 1 | -3/+2 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dropping MS's inadequate _chsize() function. This was inspired by SF patch 498109 ("fileobject truncate support for win32"), which I rejected. libstdtypes.tex: Someone who knows should update the availability blurb. For example, if it's available on Linux, it would be good to say so. test_largefile: Uncommented the file.truncate() tests, and reworked to do more. The old comment about "permission errors" in the truncation tests under Windows was almost certainly due to that the file wasn't open for *write* access at this point, so of course MS wouldn't let you truncate it. I'd be appalled if a Unixish system did. CAUTION: Someone should run this test on Linux (etc) too. The truncation part was commented out before. Note that test_largefile isn't run by default. | ||||
* | Patch #500136: Update Update ext build documentation. 2.2.1 candidate. | Martin v. Löwis | 2002-03-09 | 4 | -190/+148 |
| | |||||
* | Add more explanation of how data_files is used (esp. where the files end up | Fred Drake | 2002-03-08 | 1 | -2/+13 |
| | | | | in the installation and how that location is determined). | ||||
* | [Bug #486527] Note that the caller has to ensure there are no control | Andrew M. Kuchling | 2002-03-08 | 1 | -2/+12 |
| | | | | | | | characters in strings being passed via XML-RPC. Fix some typos. 2.2.1 bugfix candidate. | ||||
* | Add entry for mac/libscrap.tex. | Fred Drake | 2002-03-08 | 1 | -1/+2 |
| | |||||
* | I started writing more documentation on the Scrap module at one point, but | Fred Drake | 2002-03-08 | 2 | -15/+43 |
| | | | | | | it is difficult to do without a Mac box to try things out on. This expands on what was there only a little bit; hopefully someone with a Mac can work on this as well! | ||||

* | "Shortcut" should be "short-circuit". | Fred Drake | 2002-03-08 | 1 | -6/+7 |

* | Add implementations for \textgreater and \textless, defined in (relatively) | Fred Drake | 2002-03-05 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| | | | | recent versions of LaTeX2e but not support in LaTeX2HTML. | ||||
* | Remove extra indenatation from sample interpreter session. | Fred Drake | 2002-03-05 | 1 | -11/+11 |
| | | | | | Remove whitespace from the middle of an inline RE example; it was OK for the typeset formats, but LaTeX2HTML is more touchy about this. | ||||
* | add simple example of avoiding backtracking | Skip Montanaro | 2002-03-04 | 1 | -6/+22 |

* | Add 2002 to PSF copyrights. | Michael W. Hudson | 2002-02-27 | 2 | -3/+3 |
| | | | | | Doc/README is odd; it assigns some copyright to the PSF in 2000, when I didn't think it existed... | ||||
* | Fix error in explanation of the interaction between $ and MULTILINE mode. | Fred Drake | 2002-02-25 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | | | | Reported by Steve Alexander. | ||||
* | SF bug #501591: dir() doc is old | Tim Peters | 2002-02-23 | 1 | -9/+22 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bugfix candidate. + Updated dir() description to match actual 2.2 behavior. + Replaced the dir(sys) example with dir(struct), because the former was way out of date and is bound to change frequently, while the latter is stable. + Added a note cautioning that dir() is supplied primarily for convenience at an interactive prompt (hoping to discourage its use as the foundation of introspective code outside the core). | ||||
* | Grammar tweak. | Greg Ward | 2002-02-22 | 1 | -1/+1 |

* | Typo: thsi -> this. Closes SF bug #521450. | Fred Drake | 2002-02-22 | 1 | -1/+1 |

* | The "%" character does not need to be escaped in verbatim environments. | Fred Drake | 2002-02-15 | 1 | -3/+3 |
| | | | | This closes SF bug #517811. | ||||
* | Consistently use \textasciicircum to produce a ^ character. | Fred Drake | 2002-02-14 | 1 | -18/+25 |
| | | | | LaTeX really falls flat on this one! | ||||
* | Update the instructions on reporting bugs to reflect that anonymous reports | Fred Drake | 2002-02-04 | 1 | -10/+6 |
| | | | | are no longer accepted. | ||||
* | When linking to an index page, explicitly name index.html instead of | Fred Drake | 2002-02-04 | 2 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | | using "./". The later does not work nicely when browsing docs on a local disk (as in the installed docs on Windows). | ||||
* | Update version number to match Include/patchlevel.h. | Fred Drake | 2002-02-04 | 1 | -1/+3 |
| | | | | Make sure we clean up all the temp files craeted for the typeset formats. | ||||

* | Implement os.waitpid() for Windows, in a way that's compatible with Linux | Tim Peters | 2002-02-01 | 1 | -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). | ||||
* | added handle_error method description | Skip Montanaro | 2002-01-31 | 1 | -0/+5 |
| | |||||
* | Add new constants usable with os.popen() on Windows. | Tim Peters | 2002-01-30 | 1 | -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 is | Fred Drake | 2002-01-29 | 1 | -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. | ||||

| | | | | Fixes #505453. | ||||
