* There are only two base-64 alphabets defined by the RFCs, not three
* Due to the internal translation, plus (+) and slash (/) are never discarded
* standard_ and urlsafe_b64decode() discard characters as well
Also update the doc strings to clarify data types, based on revision
92760d2edc9e, correct the exception raised by b16decode(), and correct the
parameter name for the base-85 functions.
* http.client.HTTP (does not exist in Python 3) → HTTPConnection
* Server (deprecated) → ServerProxy
* Transport.send_request() grew a new “debug” parameter in Python 3 (revision
a528f7f8f97a)
* The Windows-specific binary notice was probably a Python 2 thing
* Make it more obvious gettarinfo() is based on stat(), and that non-ordinary
files may need special care
* The file name must be text; suggest dummy arcname as a workaround
* Indicate TarInfo may be used directly, not just via gettarinfo()
* Add headings for each concrete and mix-in class and list methods and
attributes under them
* Fix class and method cross references
* Changed RequestHandler to BaseRequestHandler and added class heading
* Pull out Stream/DatagramRequestHandler definitions
* Reordered the request handler setup(), handle(), finish() methods
* Document constructor parameters for the server classes
* Remove version 2.6 not relevant for Python 3 documentation
* Various sections were pointing to the section on the string.Formatter
class, when the section on the common format string syntax is probably more
appropriate
* Fix references to various format() functions and methods
* Nested replacement fields may contain conversions and format specifiers,
and this is tested; see Issue #19729 for instance
Issue #26248, patch written by Ben Hoyt:
1) Clarify that the return values of is_dir()/is_file()/etc are cached
separately for follow_symlinks True and False.
2) Be more specific about when the functions require a system call, and how it
relates to caching and follow_symlinks.
3) DRY up common stuff between is_dir and is_file by saying "Caching, system
calls made, and exceptions raised are as per is_dir" in is_file.
4) Tweak to the first paragraph of docs for is_dir/is_file to simplify: assume
the follow_symlinks=True default, then note the follow_symlinks=False
non-default case after.
Issue #25907: Use {% trans %} tags in HTML templates to ease the translation of
the documentation. The tag comes from Jinja templating system, used by Sphinx.
Patch written by Julien Palard.
A single call to Pool.apply_async() will create only one process. To use all
of the pool's processes, it should be invoked multiple times:
with Pool(processes=4) as pool:
results = [pool.apply_async(func, ()) for i in range(4)]
Patch by Davin Potts.
This change helps to ignore text of PSF, BEOPEN.com and CNRI licenses when
translating the documentation. Patch written by Julien Palard who is
translating Python 3.5 doc to french. Text of other licenses already used
preformatted format.
