dbec7d2c16 Improve Windows time.clock() blurb; was missing return type and unit. 2001-08-19 01:38:03 +00:00
Fred Drake
58212724f2 Add a comment on time.time() returning non-decreasing values except when 
the clock is set back.

This closes SF bug #447945.

687a17deaa Revise the description of time.clock() so that it correctly describes the 
Windows version of the function as well as the Unix flavor.

This fixes SF bug #441357.

8ee679f0ce Minor changes to match the style guide. 2001-07-14 02:50:55 +00:00
Fred Drake
907e76b620 Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make 
translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more
difficult for non-native speakers.

f29ca18df3 SourceForge bug #437041: 
Use a portable format in the example that creates a timestamp suitable for
use in email, also updating it and the footnote from RFC 822 to RFC 2822.

1aec3a16f3 Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the time 
used to be omitted (meaning use the current time) as of Python 2.1.
Users who need cross-version portability need to know things like this.

9ca35ec97a Instructive example for strftime(); how to generate RFC822 dates. 2001-01-28 00:56:54 +00:00
Thomas Wouters
fe385251f4 Make the 'time' argument to the timemodule functions strftime, asctime, 
ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in
all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to
METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265.

f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope 
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

29fa30ea6b Correct a markup nit that caused a space to be dropped from the HTML 
version (actually a LaTeX2HTML bug), and clarified a sentence in the
mktime() description based entirely on comments from Grant Griffin
<grant.griffin@honeywell.com>.

57a2f7f8ef Change description of altzone to not refer to the "0th meridian". 2000-06-30 04:24:52 +00:00
Fred Drake
d1a56f4235 Noted by Guido: 
Fixed up descriptions of altzone and timezone not to refer to the
0th meridian, which doesn't exist.  Reference is now to UTC.

abc8cc63ce Move some \index entries around so we can avoid using empty comments; 
empty comments trigger a bug in LaTeX2HTML.

checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.

094579e677 (libtime.tex): Merged in changes from Tamito Kajiyama. 
(For those watching Python CVS messages:  I checked in all of
	Tamito's other changes, but the mail delivery failed since the
	subject line was too long.  The patch Tamito sent for the
	documentation has been completely merged in.)
