511e2cacc4 [ #403753 ] zlib decompress; uncontrollable memory usage 
Mostly by Toby Dickenson and Titus Brown.

Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress()
method.  The argument specifies the maximum length of the return
value.  If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data
is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute.  (Not to be confused with
unused_data, which is a separate issue.)

Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is ""
rather than None.  It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.

327798ca4a Added notes to clarify that binascii.crc32(), zlib.crc32(), and 
zlib.adler32() are not suitable as general hash functions.

bc524c4e9f Cut-&-paste-o noted by Wolfgang Teschner: decompressobj() returns 
*DE*compression objects, not compression objects!

ba0a989988 Make all the \seemodule explanations consistent: start with a capitalized 
letter and end with proper punctuation.  "Documenting Python" will be
updated accordingly so that this will be editorial policy for the Python
documentation.

315b9e0ac1 Update *both* uses of the URL to the zlib home page, and use the version 
advertised as the canonical form.

b11d108cdc The version information here was checked good in 1999, not 199. ;-) 
Added "See also" reference to zlib home page, even though it's
mentioned in the text.

45b0aeda3c correct version info for zlib. 
add note about module failing with old versions of the library.

update comment that explains that this doc is *still* out of date

to the flush() method of compressor objects.

8a254b5967 Removed misleading comment about GNU software. This module and the zlib 
library have no relationship with GNU software other than implementing some of
the same algorithms and file format.  (The zlib module is more general.)

74810d5abb Nits. 
Add {excdesc} for zlib.error.

Use {methoddesc} where appropriate.

cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain, 
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.

1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous 
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.

ed79783bb2 Converted to use new macros. This example demonstrate \method{} and, more 
importantly, \url{}.
