From 58a9153c9f49fcfe58a9e91b08167ff3483b36f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?=C3=89ric=20Araujo?= Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2011 01:28:24 +0200 Subject: Fix markup used in the documentation of sys.prefix and sys.exec_prefix. - Using the file role with {placeholders} is IMO clearer than fake Python code. - The fact that sys.version[:3] gives '3.2' is a CPython detail and should not be advertised (see #9442), even if some stdlib modules currently rely on that detail. --- Doc/library/sys.rst | 14 +++++++------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/Doc/library/sys.rst b/Doc/library/sys.rst index 105f716..fdf188f 100644 --- a/Doc/library/sys.rst +++ b/Doc/library/sys.rst @@ -194,10 +194,10 @@ always available.
