aef0e890b5 Document the limitation that urllib does not work with proxies which
require authenication.  This is an implementation limitation rather than
required behavior, and may be fixed in the future.

This closes SourceForge bug #111725.

1c8feae411 New method getnamespace.
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.

f730fc3e4e Be a little more careful to avoid including style information in the
generated markup.

Don't be careless with the navigation icons!  We should use the blank
icon where there is not anyplace to go for a particular position in the
navigation bar.

501b926da9 Move common parameters to mkhowto to a variable, add up-link from the
generated documents to the document index.

dfa539d770 Add --up-link and --up-title parameters to allow linking the top level
of the generated document to an external index.  These correspond to the
-up_url and -up_title parameters of LaTeX2HTML.

3be2074758 Push some table header formatting to the style sheet; this also helps
separate some of the ties between l2hinit.perl and python.perl.

Revamp the "title page" construction to allow more flexibility.

8bc627a402 Add --l2h-init option, which can augment the standard LaTeX2HTML
initialization with additional Perl files.  This can be given more
than once.

b9b4c5b560 Centralize the processing logic for LaTeX documents into the mkhowto script;
do not use mkdvi.sh or mkhtl.sh any more.

This slows down building all versions of the documentation, but if you are
only building one format, it does not matter.

fcab76350a Relocate the popen2 documentation since it is now substantially more

4973b35991 Remove the reference to stdwin. The comment was still true, but no
longer meaningful to a new user, since stdwin is long gone.

d576e9df5f Markup revisions. Nothing was actually required to be able to format it,
but many conventions were broken.

47eceeaaa4 Added a couple of links to online documentation. Reasonable since this
file is not used in the online documentation.

Added section on augmented assignment
Mentioned 'print >>file'
Broke up the "Core Changes" section into subsections

fcb8725de5 Add a --style option to allow specifying an alternate CSS style sheet for
HTML generation; the machinery was there but no option to set it was
defined.

Simplify some of the path-math since we can assume a recent version of
Python.

12bba852a9 Rough and incomplete documentation on augmented assignment, which follows
shortly. Markup also needs checking.

Guido van Rossum
3d0c77b37c Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggested
that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__.
In fact it must be done *before*.

(Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)
2000-08-24 16:20:32 +00:00
