c3b18d7ca8 Fix error noted by Gerrit Holl (old; had been buried in my INBOX):
sequence repitition works just fine with long integers now, so we
should not say that only plain integers are allowed.

0c47559352 Added a note that objects which emulate built-in types should only
implement as many of the relevant methods as make sense for the particular
information being modelled.

objects can be modified at any point with the expected results.

e463f8e4cd A few small refinements to the table building code. 2000-11-30 07:17:27 +00:00
Fred Drake
c01f6e691b Use a table to describe the keys to the locale information dictionary;
this is slightly easier to read than the list environment that had been
used.
2000-11-30 07:13:58 +00:00
Fred Drake
e0b9deb3ce Use small tables instead of bare \item markers to describe the contents
of return tuples.  The bare \item took advantage of an implementation
detail when formatting in LaTeX, and was just wrong when generating HTML.
It also broke the XML conversion scripts, since there was no enclosing
list-like environment to contain them.

6b3f3f2861 In the first discussion showing how to handle exceptions from C, make the
Python equivalent actually equivalent to the C code.  Also, in the C code,
place the "goto" statements on a line by themselves for better visibility
of statements that affect control flow.

This closes bug #123398.

f65ab1bf10 Added entries reflecting the separation of the abstract DOM documentation
and the implementation docs for xml.dom.minidom.
2000-11-29 06:11:29 +00:00
Fred Drake
eaf57aa44a Substantial re-organization of the DOM documentation. The abstract API
is now separated from the supplied standard implementation.  Not all
interfaces are documented yet, but the structure is better set up to do
so.

There is still a lot to do here, but the shape of the documentation is
coming into line.

ee814bf2c9 Added documentation for the Py_InitModule*() family of functions. 2000-11-28 22:34:32 +00:00
Fred Drake
83ff4af1a3 Added information on the use of Unicode with the StringIO and cStringIO
modules, otherwise the behavior is just plain confusing.

0a0ef8696b Use a subclass of buildindex.Node to clean up the HTML and get the
ordering fixed up (this makes sure that "xml.dom" comes before
"xml.dom.minidom" in the Module Index, which was not true before because
some HTML cruft crept into the data structures).
2000-11-28 16:20:50 +00:00
Fred Drake
6763b31731 Added brief explanation of the \versionchanged for 1.5.2 (fixes formatting
for the HTML version).

691a5a7c09 Convert the LaTeX "tie" (~) to a simple space.
Add support for some combining characters.

Remove unnecessary imports and dependencies on PyXML and esistools.
2000-11-22 17:56:43 +00:00
Fred Drake
382a75d0e9 Update to reflect the process changes.
Remove the SGML aspects; there's too much XML momentum to worry about
the SGML flavor at this point.
2000-11-22 16:58:25 +00:00
Fred Drake
97be740cd8 Update the rules to separate the two phases for the ESIS generation,
entirely so that debugging can be performed independently.
2000-11-22 16:54:20 +00:00
Fred Drake
d397f236d5 Add support for (relatively) recent additions and changes to python.sty,

78489a362e Do not use \verb in the Python documentation -- it makes parsing the LaTeX
sources more difficult and other tools do not always work well with it.
Since we have better markup for this case, just fix it.

17383b9ad7 Added information about the %r string formatting conversion. Added note
about the interpretation of radix 0 for int(), and added description of
the optional radix argument for long().  Based on comments from Reuben
Sumner <rasumner@users.sourceforge.net>.

This closes bug #121672.

2ed27d3189 Note that readframes() returns data in linear format, even if the original
is encoded in u-LAW format.  Based on suggestion from Anthony Baxter
<anthony_baxter@users.sourceforge.net>.

5942b439b3 define_module(): Change the "index sub-item" for definitions at module
scope to be " (in module <name>)" instead of
                  " (in <name>)" to be consistent with \withsubitem
                  usage throughout the documentation.  This achieves
                  consistency in indexing throughout the documentation.
