* Added dependencies for the compiler and email packages.Fred Drake2001-09-271-0/+10
| | | | (Migrate to branch, along with new files compiler.tex and asttable.tex.)
* Migrate the compiler documentation from the Tools/compiler/doc/ directory.Fred Drake2001-09-272-0/+589
| | | | Changes made to make it work in the new location.
* Do not distinguish \refmodule from \module in the generated output;Fred Drake2001-09-271-1/+4
| | | | | | whether or not a link will be generated will depend on the link database. Add a couple of explanatory comments for one of the stranger constructs (giving input an empty name).
* Re-write <ulink> elements as described in the conversion spec.Fred Drake2001-09-271-0/+19

* Turn \input, \include, and \verbatiminput into XInclude elements insteadFred Drake2001-09-272-10/+14

* Add support for some more markup that had slipped in.Fred Drake2001-09-271-2/+15
| | | | Fixed a typo in a comment.
* Fix some markup errors.Fred Drake2001-09-271-2/+2

* Markup adjustment: \[...\] is math markup and does not translate well whenFred Drake2001-09-271-6/+7
| | | | | | used with text as was done here. Fixed so that the typeset version wraps the warning text and the HTML version does not create images of the warning text.
* Remove comment that no longer applies.Fred Drake2001-09-261-3/+0

* Move the styling for the HTML version of \mailheader into the CSS file.Fred Drake2001-09-263-2/+3
| | | | | | In both the HTML and typeset versions of the documentation, add a colon after the name of a mail header so that it is more easily distinguished from other text.
* Note that the colon following a mail header name should not be includedFred Drake2001-09-261-5/+5
| | | | | | when using the \mailheader markup. Change a couple of inline examples to show the markup rather than the result.
* Typo fix.Greg Ward2001-09-261-1/+1
|
* Move the \mailheader description to the right place.Fred Drake2001-09-261-12/+13
| | | | | | Clarify the \mimetype description; it can be used to refer to a part of a MIME type name, so \mimetype{text} or \mimetype{plain} can be used, not just \mimetype{text/plain}.
* Start making some markup adjustments; Barry has indicated he will work onFred Drake2001-09-261-17/+17
| | | | this before we finish the integration, along with some restructuring.
* The email package documentation, currently organized the way I thinkBarry Warsaw2001-09-268-0/+1168
| | | | Fred prefers. I'm not sure I like this organization, so it may change.
* Update to support \mailheader and 5-column tables.Fred Drake2001-09-251-0/+52
|
* Simplify a helper by returning fewer values.Fred Drake2001-09-251-5/+4
|
* Clarified some points about the interface to the mmap() function.Fred Drake2001-09-251-10/+11
| | | | This closes SF bug #448918.
* Minor changes.Fred Drake2001-09-251-5/+8
|
* Revise the example to be more resiliant in the face of continued use afterFred Drake2001-09-251-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | the object has been pickled; don't mutate the instance dict in the __getstate__() method. Other minor changes for style. Broke up the displayed interactive session to get better page-breaking behavior for typeset versions, and to point out an important aspect of the example. This closes SF bug #453914.
* Added documentation for the SSL interface, contributed by Gerhard Häring.Fred Drake2001-09-251-0/+23
| | | | This closes SF patch #461337.
* Fix a URL (closing SF patch #462195).Fred Drake2001-09-251-25/+43
| | | | | | Cleaned up a bunch of XXX comments containing links to additional information, replacing them with proper references. Replaced "MacOS" with "Mac OS", since that's what the style guide says.
* Add more signature information and some descriptions for the new APIsFred Drake2001-09-241-1/+89
| | | | | | | introduced in Python 2.2. Add documentation for the slice object interface (not complete). Added version annotations for several of the Python 2.2 APIs already documented.
* Add more reference count information.Fred Drake2001-09-241-0/+28
|
* Add link to Unix Review's 2.2 articleAndrew M. Kuchling2001-09-241-2/+11
| | | | Fix two errors
* Generalize file.writelines() to allow iterable objects.Tim Peters2001-09-231-2/+4
|
* Added API information for the PyCallIter_*() and PySeqIter_*() functions.Fred Drake2001-09-232-1/+66
| | | | Added signatures for some new PyType_*() functions.
* Make difflib.ndiff() and difflib.Differ.compare() generators. ThisTim Peters2001-09-221-12/+14
| | | | | restores the 2.1 ability of Tools/scripts/ndiff.py to start producing output before the entire comparison is complete.
* Add a function to compute a class's method resolution order. This isTim Peters2001-09-221-1/+9
| | | | | | easy for 2.2 new-style classes, but trickier for classic classes, and different approaches are needed "depending". The function will allow later code to treat all flavors of classes uniformly.
* Note that files are iterable; describe what the iterator returns.Fred Drake2001-09-221-0/+5
| | | | This closes SF bug #463738.
* Bump version number.Fred Drake2001-09-212-2/+2
|
* Added reference to Tutorial section on user-defined exceptions forFred Drake2001-09-211-9/+15
| | | | | information on defining new exceptions. This closes SF bug #443559.
* Exceptions in interactive examlpes did not always include the indication ofFred Drake2001-09-211-19/+85
| | | | | | | | | the source file using "in ?". Added a description of the bare "raise" statement. Added more description and examples for user-defined exceptions; this is part of a response to SF bug #443559.
* Fill in a few more descriptions for xml.parsers.expat.Fred Drake2001-09-201-5/+24
|
* Document new file() constructor, with the body of open()'s text, plus aTim Peters2001-09-201-37/+45
| | | | | "new in 2.2" blurb at the end. Replace open()'s text by pointing back to file().
* Document all the Py*_CheckExact() functions.Fred Drake2001-09-202-26/+174
| | | | Document many more of the PyLong_{As,From}*() functions.
* Docs and News item for the codecs.py additions.Marc-André Lemburg2001-09-191-0/+32

* Fix minor usage and consistency nits.Fred Drake2001-09-181-4/+5

* SF patch #461781 by Chris Lawrence: os.path.realpath - Resolve symlinks:Guido van Rossum2001-09-171-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once upon a time, I put together a little function that tries to find the canonical filename for a given pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to turning it into a proper patch with documentation. On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are encountered in the path. Example: >>> os.path.realpath('/usr/bin/X11/X') '/usr/X11R6/bin/X'
* Fixed typo in new 'p' description.Tim Peters2001-09-151-1/+1

* Markup adjustments for consistency.Fred Drake2001-09-141-5/+6

* Add support for SMTP TLSAndrew M. Kuchling2001-09-141-0/+5
|
* SF patch #461413 (Gerhard Häring): Add STARTTLS feature to smtplibGuido van Rossum2001-09-141-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the features from RFC 2487 (Secure SMTP over TLS) to the smtplib module: - A starttls() function - Wrapper classes that simulate enough of sockets and files for smtplib, but really wrap a SSLObject - reset the list of known SMTP extensions at each call of ehlo(). This should have been the case anyway.
* Admit that we'll never add the args for a "call" event to the profileFred Drake2001-09-131-8/+9
| | | | | | and trace functions; this now declares that None will be passed for the "call" event. This closes SF bug/suggestion #460315.
* Add missing "}".Fred Drake2001-09-121-1/+1

* These modules now live under the Carbon package.Jack Jansen2001-09-111-42/+76

* Added applesingle, macresource, Nav and videoreader.Jack Jansen2001-09-111-9/+67
| | | | | Moved icopen to its alphabetical place. Moved waste here (from toolbox).
