4211925453 Added `memtest' target which excludes the quicktest modules plus
test_dl, test___all__, test_fork1, and test_longexp.  All these either
take way too long with Insure or crash it.

3f4e717c31 Revise the scripts I use to update the documentation on the SourceForge
site.  These now seem (slightly) more reliable, and easier to work with
since update-docs.sh no longer needs to be installed ahead of time on
my account at SF.

93c867139f Lots of organizational changes for consistency with the rest of the
documentation.

Fix a few small markup nits.

80d4c07775 There was a real leak in the "export a C API" example; fix that one.
(There are too many initspam() functions; they need to be renamed
post-beta.)

0539bfaaa4 There is no longer a -X option to the interpreter, so remove the comments
on how PyErr_NewException() behaves in that case.

Clarify why an owned reference is kept in an extension module's
variable that refers to the result of PyErr_NewException(); one reader
thought that was a leak.

Clean up some tabs and simplify some markup.

78d7dc4979 Added -o/--output-file option as per GNU msgfmt to specify the output

implied.

043732e95d Enable FSpResourceFileAlreadyOpen only for Carbon. This is not strictly correct: OS9 InterfaceLib has it, but enabling it will make Python refuse to run on 8.6 and earlier. 2001-03-02 16:32:03 +00:00

cfef0096f9 Job.build_html(): When formatting HTML into more than one HTML page, and
not doing the \label{foo} --> foo.html transformation (--numeric was
    specified on the command line), still look to see if there is an
    "About this document..." node and copy that to "about.html", since the
    page footers use that as the target.

53a79060bb When not copying a file because the output is up to date, make the message
slightly more brief, and more like the message that an extension will not
be built because the built copy is up to date.

ad2c3c7b69 Extra fix from bbum (SF #402357) for his previous patch:
It should use the normal CC referenced compiler as ObjC is integrated
  directly into gcc and enabled through the use of the -ObjC flag.

b7fe432a88 Fix by Donn Cave for BeOS (SF #403642):
UNIX style fork/execve/wait are not fully compatible with thread
  support on BeOS.  For Python, that means neither fork() from import
  nor import from a fork work reliably. os._execvpe() does the latter,
  importing tempfile to set up a tantalizing target for hackers. This
  patch replaces both the tempfile name generation and the exec that
  uses it, in case we're on BeOS. Need this for
  setup:distutils:execvp(); symptoms are random crashes and internal
  BeOS error messages about th name, in case we're on BeOS. It's an
  issue because setup.py + distutils calls os.execvp(); symptoms are
  random crashes during setup.py, and internal BeOS error messages
  about thread IDs.

dedbebf9f8 Add more protection around the VSWTC/VSWTCH, CRTSCTS, and XTABS symbols;
these can be missing on some (all?) Irix and Tru64 versions.

Protect the CRTSCTS value with a cast; this can be a larger value on
Solaris/SPARC.

This should fix SF tracker items #405092, #405350, and #405355.

4eb0c003f8 Make getsourcefile() succeed even if the filename doesn't end in '.py' --
as long as the filename also doesn't end in a suffix that indicates
    a binary file (according to the flags in imp.get_suffixes()).

Shrink try...except clauses and replace some of them with explicit checks.

b616e114f7 Believe it or not, but "more" on Windows requires "more <file" rather
than "more file".  Since tempfilepager() is only used on Windows, it
seems, do this unconditionally -- on Unix, it always invokes something
else.

207fda61a5 Refactored the warning-issuing code more.
Made sure that the warnings issued by symtable_check_unoptimized()
(about import * and exec) contain the proper filename and line number,
and are transformed into SyntaxError exceptions with -Werror.
