| | | | Rewrite example to be an interactive session
* setkey method's argument is no longer optional (it used to be a no-opBarry Warsaw1997-01-022-6/+4

* (libformatter.tex): Document the flush() method on the writer.Fred Drake1996-12-312-0/+8

* Added libstat.texGuido van Rossum1996-12-313-1/+4
|
* Document the new extensions.Guido van Rossum1996-12-312-18/+128
|
* From reading the source, it turns out that the setkey() method canBarry Warsaw1996-12-232-4/+6
| | | | | | take an optional string key, but if key is not given, the method does nothing! In the rewrite (see upcoming check-in), I left things this way, but here I document that this is the case.
* Describe open(2) exported constantsBarry Warsaw1996-12-192-0/+60
|
* Docs for stat.py -- docs by Skip Montanaro.Guido van Rossum1996-12-192-0/+212

|
* (libtime.tex): Merged in changes from Tamito Kajiyama.Fred Drake1996-12-132-96/+90
| | | | | | | (For those watching Python CVS messages: I checked in all of Tamito's other changes, but the mail delivery failed since the subject line was too long. The patch Tamito sent for the documentation has been completely merged in.)
* (lib<all sorts of stuff>.tex):Fred Drake1996-12-1341-80/+154
| | | | | Merged in many typo corrections and fixes to support GNU info processing; submitted by Tamito Kajiyama.
* (tut.tex): Normalized all uses of "UNIX" and "{\UNIX}" to use "\UNIX{}",Fred Drake1996-12-132-18/+18
| | | | | per usage needed for GNU info processing. Based on comments from Tamito Kajiyama.
* (myformat.sty): Added a note about using \command{} v. {\command} wrt.Fred Drake1996-12-131-0/+2
| | | | GNU info processing.
* Added quote_plus() and unquote_plus(), to do space/plus substitutionsGuido van Rossum1996-12-132-2/+22
| | | | | | for form field values. Also corrected substitution example (the original changed the spelling of "conolly" to "connolly" :).
* Typos reported by Tamito Kajiyama.Guido van Rossum1996-12-132-4/+4
|
* Added remark about time() and sleep()'s subsecond precision.Guido van Rossum1996-12-122-64/+34
| | | | | | Added hint about using clock() for benchmarks etc. Removed non-portable strftime directives and field width, and added a warning about non-standard features.
* Added soundex (sigh)Guido van Rossum1996-12-125-1/+53
|
* Added descriptions of parsedate(), parsedate_tz(), getdate_tz()Guido van Rossum1996-12-062-0/+56
| | | | (all contributed by Andrew Kuchling).
* Added section for operator module (compiled Skip Montanaro).Guido van Rossum1996-12-065-1/+389
|
* (Makefile): Added sym links for each manual, i.e., index.html -> lib.html.Fred Drake1996-12-061-0/+3
| | | | This makes addressing the manuals a little simpler.
* (Makefile): The sed hack is needed for all 3 manuals processed by latex2html;Fred Drake1996-12-061-3/+10
| | | | | the comma must represent a bug in the modified process_command() function, but I haven't found it yet. This will work for now.
* (Makefile): Rip out old partparse.py / texi2html.py stuff -- use latex2htmlFred Drake1996-12-061-35/+7
| | | | instead! Updated some comments.
* (myformat.perl): Don't italicize the '[]' characters around optionalFred Drake1996-12-061-1/+1
| | | | parameters.
* (.latex2html-init): Restore one setting to the default (no real need toFred Drake1996-12-061-2/+2
| | | | change it), and correct a typo in a comment.
* (libparser.tex): Added note that the line number for a terminal tokenFred Drake1996-12-052-4/+6
| | | | | | indicates the line on which the token ends rather than starts (a side effect of interpreting the parse tree nodes directly). Maybe I'll fix this for Python 2.0.
* Describe the new Unpacker.get_buffer() method.Barry Warsaw1996-12-042-0/+8
|
* Added [nh]to[hn][sl]().Guido van Rossum1996-12-022-0/+22
|
* Added .ilg (makeindex logfile)Guido van Rossum1996-11-271-0/+1
|
* Added some more turd files we can't avoid: .MIF, .ps, .auto.Guido van Rossum1996-11-271-0/+3
|
* Webmaker instructionsGuido van Rossum1996-11-271-0/+560
|
* Script to write MIF files from ref*.{book,doc}Guido van Rossum1996-11-271-0/+17
|
* (myformat.perl): Fixed handling of "\e" -- argh!Fred Drake1996-11-111-3/+3
|
* (Makefile): Updated comments about using LaTeX2HTML for the libraryFred Drake1996-11-111-25/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | reference. Made the extension to the input files for makeindex explicit; if not made explicit a directory of the given base name can cause makeindex to blow up. Specifically, if there is a directory ./lib/ created by LaTeX2HTML, "makeindex lib" will fail, but "makeindex lib.idx" will not. l2h{tut,ext,lib} are now dependent on myformat.perl. l2h adds ls2lib and removes the non-existant l2href.
* (myformat.perl): Simplify generated HTML for "\optional{...}".Fred Drake1996-11-111-2/+2
|
* (fix_libaux.sed): Hackish little sed script to modify lib.aux to get sectionFred Drake1996-11-112-0/+6
| | | | | | numbers right for latex2html for section titles which include "\sectcode{__.*__}" in the name. Perhaps less general than it should be, but sufficient.
* (.latex2html-init): Perform some limited setup for the reference manuals;Fred Drake1996-11-111-0/+98
| | | | | | | | some defaults are set here, but mostly this allows the "\," command to be used the way it is in the Python documentation. All future documentation should probably be written with only "," in the argument lists and not "\,".
* (myformat.sty): Simplify \varvars definition.Fred Drake1996-11-111-1/+1
|
* (myformat.perl): Updated to allow library reference manual to be handled byFred Drake1996-11-111-13/+72
| | | | | latex2html. Mostly added support for custom environments and some of the smaller commands used in the library reference (\e, \optional).
* Added 'Introduction' section head and 'Memory Management' subsection.Guido van Rossum1996-11-061-1/+20
