023f87fbf8 Lots of minor markup nits, all consistency related. 
Consistently use trailing "()" on function / method names.

Wrapped some long lines.

97546399c7 Document maxsplit arg for split(), with incompatibility note about 1.5 
release bug.

Document groups() changed behaviour (now always returns tuple).

74947ac473 Modify command descriptions to use \optional{} instead of ad-hoc markup. 
There are still weirdnesses, but less of them.

6c886a8db1 \optional{}: Removed leading word space, allowing more flexibility. 
{seealso} environment:  Always start a new paragraph after the "See Also:"
	line; this ensures that formatting is consistent for each subsequent
	\see*{} item.

b2c45a8197 Sigh. Apply a similar patch to the *other* occurrence of [^...]. 1998-01-12 05:49:05 +00:00

fd49a964bc Follow current recommended practice in an example: Use isinstance() to 
perform a type test instead of type(x) == types.FoobarType.  In example
for type().

48022db400 "Unix" --> "\UNIX{}" 
Added index references to referred-to modules.

cf7e830869 Add module reference for cPickle to index. 
Consistency:  Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.

Consistency:  Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.

Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP".  I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.

12d9da5827 Use \file{} instead of \code{} or ``\code{}'' to mark file & directory names 
& name parts.

Fred Drake
60a3d2788e Consistency: Always use lower-case markup; one tag was still given in 
uppercase.  (Makes it easier to see what markup is generated by the
	Python manual support and what is generated by standard latex2html.)

0fd8268189 Revise prologue and frontmatter to use latex2e (not in 2.09 compatibility 
mode) and take advantage of changes in myformat.sty.

Change "C" to "\C{}" and "\code{NULL}" to "\NULL{}" everywhere for consistency
and control.

Started a description of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords().

031ad4b2a0 \mytableofcontents New macro. Wrapper around \tableofcontents that 
does the right thing if the openright option is given.  Allows a
	lot of crud to be removed from the document files' frontmatter
	sections.

\endabstract		Extend standard macro.  (Called as \end{abstract}.)
	Does the right thing if the openright option is given.

\optional		Adjust to get the brackets right under latex2e.

c4586387f6 In description of \D, revise markup so that the caret shows up in the HTML 
version as well as the dvi form.  Without the fix, it showed up as an extra
zero character.

Bug reported by Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk>.

85a5c52752 Descriptions for PyRun_String(), PyRun_File(), and PyRun_CompileString() all 
gave the return type as part of the function field and used an empty return
type field.  Fixed.

Function name field for PyLong_FromString() included an asterisk at the
beginning of the function name field; removed.

da941ef27c Added support for storing information to build a module index. 
Enhance the "theindex" environment to add an entry to the table of contents.

Fred Drake
875c807c92 In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals; 
"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html
output (the font was right).  Changed to "\code{{\e}(}" variation, which
fixes both.  Breaks the .texi file generation again.  Oh well.

8e94489882 Add a note that up to 1.4, translate() produced Emacs style syntax; in 
1.5, it produces Perl style syntax.  Also change "Python's regular
expressions" into plain "regular expression" in the intro.

e33e903461 Updated release date to match boilerplate.tex. 
Removed implied future availability of an info/texi version of the other
