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.

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.

75c6cb909c Add support for a filename to record the name of the node in which the 
table will be presented.  Accessor methods are used to access the
attribute.

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).

1c4efad770 Move the "See also" section to a location more consistent with other 
module sections.  Properly mark the name of the module in the content
of the reference there.

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

31edf4defb Wrap some long lines. 
Note that \file and \filenq do not work inside section titles.

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

"manual" class documents.

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.

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.
