* - add link relationships to some of the links in the navigation panelsFred Drake2003-05-021-7/+16
| | | | | | - implement custom_REL_hook() so LaTeX2HTML uses currently recommended link types; those work fine with tools like the Mozilla Site Navigation Bar
* The previous made the stop argument optional.Raymond Hettinger2003-05-021-10/+7
| | | | It is better to be explicit and just allow stop to be None.

| | | | | * itertools.islice() stop argument did not perform as documented. * beefed-up test suite

* SF bug #729096: getopt online documentation example improvementRaymond Hettinger2003-04-291-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | A newbie found it difficult to translate the exampe into a case that used only short options or long options but not both. He tried to shorten the tuple search but forgot the trailing comma, The appropriate pattern is an equality check. Revised the example to point him in the right direction. Backport candidate.

* SF bug 728097: tmpnam problems on windows 2.3b, breaks test.test_os.Tim Peters2003-04-281-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke the test for Irmen de Jong. Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam() for details. Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good if we supplied a different implementation. Bugfix candidate.

* Patch by Jp Calderone:Guido van Rossum2003-04-251-0/+42
| | | | | | | | | - The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses. See SF patch #658327. This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
