Fred Drake
f913e542be Vladimir Marangozov <Vladimir.Marangozov@inrialpes.fr>: 
Here are some changes to the C API docs. The memory examples & API have
been updated because one malloc family is gone (Py_Malloc).
You'll see other small additions to the "building new types" section
for completeness and some cleanup at the end of the memory section.

1349437e4c When referring to namespaces, always say "namespaces" instead of

aafc0c4595 When formatting the API manual, use the generated api.tex rather than

643d76d735 Add support for new \pep, \seepep, excclassdesc markup. 
Update processing of module synopsis tables (found at the beginning of
most chapters of the library reference) to reflect changes in the
processing pattern of recent versions LaTeX2HMTL.  Requires most
recent change to SynopsisTable.pm.

This does not fix the module index problem.
 2000-09-09 06:07:37 +00:00
Fred Drake
4e607964d1 excclassdesc: New environment. For use in documenting class-based 
exceptions which have interesting constructor signatures.

\pep, \seepep:  New macros.  Equivalent to \rfc and \seerfc, but
        referring to the PEP series instead of the Internet RFC
        series of documents.

1172a85175 Really minor consistency nit. 2000-09-09 03:31:17 +00:00
Fred Drake
66571cc20c Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making them 
hyperlinks to relevant sections.

Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like
objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access
in user-defined classes).
 2000-09-09 03:30:34 +00:00

enabled at build time.
 2000-09-09 03:26:51 +00:00
Fred Drake
1c4efad770 Move the "See also" section to a location more consistent with other

Small nits in the layout of the generated markup.
 2000-09-07 20:07:41 +00:00

Note that \file and \filenq do not work inside section titles.
 2000-09-07 20:06:07 +00:00
Fred Drake
5cd0cefbd2 Remove the specific date -- back in development mode. 2000-09-07 18:56:29 +00:00
Fred Drake
d0726c3cd9 \file is not allowed in section titles -- converting to PDF fails due to 
weird macro-expansion issues.  A better solution may be available in the
future, but this will do for now.

Add an index entry.  More should probably be added as well.
 2000-09-07 18:55:08 +00:00
Fred Drake
88c023b863 Remove comment about -X and string exceptions. Error noted by

239e1d5e50 Fix mkhowto so that the bookmarks for the PDF work for both "howto" and 
"manual" class documents.
 2000-09-05 21:45:11 +00:00
Fred Drake
8bdf0bf705 Fix PDF generation. 
The \\ introduced in the \author in boilerplate.tex broke the PDF
generation because line breaks are not allowed in the "Document Info"
metadata stored in the PDF file.  This changes the line break to
a ", " (comma-space) in that context.
 2000-09-05 15:19:56 +00:00
Fred Drake
82de71dae8 Minor nit to make this work a little better with the PDF generation fix.
