66ded524ba apply() documentation: Remove a detail about the implementation that does 
not affect the API.  Clean up the text about call syntax apply() is
equivalent to.  Based on comments by Thomas Guettler.

169ded0d68 Finish SF patch 477059: __del__ on new classes vs. GC. 
Just doc and NEWS here, about the change in gc.garbage meaning.

7533587d43 Improved error msg when a symbolic group name is redefined. Added docs 
and NEWS.  Bugfix candidate?  That's a dilemma for Anthony <wink>:  /F
did fix a longstanding bug here, but the fix can cause code to raise an
exception that previously worked by accident.

generate PostScript).

67bd68392c Make sure there are no weird nesting behaviors; the PDF version will not 
format if there are (building the "bookmarks" for the reader breaks).
 2001-11-02 19:41:23 +00:00

3808045d00 Correct misspelling of "separate" in two places. 
This closes SF bug #476898.

433b5c4d34 Rewrites and additions resulting from today's feedback 2001-10-30 21:36:04 +00:00
Fred Drake
345b8df2c4 Always use --dvips-safe when generating HTML for the standard documentation 
since we do not have anything that causes dvips to be run except when
PostScript is specifically requested, which is a separate target.
 2001-10-30 16:28:46 +00:00
Fred Drake
3ce28e4bd0 Add a new option, --dvips-safe, which sets the $DVIPS_SAFE option in 
LaTeX2HTML.  This is not safe to do in general (for the reasons LaTeX2HTML
protects against dvips to begin with), but is safe if we do not actually
need to run dvips.  Note that we also assume it is safe if the user
specifically requests PostScript generation.  See the comments for further
explanation.

visible in the table of contents.

e59feb5edc Revise the PDF support in the LaTeX style sheet. This still isn't quite 
right, but the tests for whether we are generating PDF are a bit more
readable, and some unnecessary indirection has been removed.

a bunch of them now.

520b0093db Make sure we generate versions of each file in the Python/C API manual with 
reference-count annotations; this is needed for the typeset forms of the
manuals.

b83769cb82 Finish off the type/class section; I don't think there's much else

d5be3b75dd Add notes pointing out that these classes are kept for backward compatibility 
and suggeest that new code that does not require compatibility with older
Python versions subclass dictionary, list, or str.
