Back in June in revision 1.98 Steve (accidentally, presumably) wiped
...
out a month's worth of checkins to libstdtypes.tex (including my
extended slice docs).
I think this checkin merges them all back in, but if you make one of
these checkins:
revision 1.97
date: 2002/06/14 00:27:13; author: nnorwitz
Use \code{True} (or False) instead of true/false.
Not sure if code is correct, but that is what's in this file.
I've seen \constant{True} in other places.
----------------------------
revision 1.95
date: 2002/05/22 20:39:43; author: bwarsaw
Jack's documentation for the U mode character on the file()
constructor, vetted by Barry.
----------------------------
revision 1.94
date: 2002/05/21 18:19:15; author: rhettinger
Patch 543387. Document deprecation of complex %, //,and divmod().
----------------------------
revision 1.93

Patch #683592 revisited, after discussions with MvL:
...
- Implement the behavior as specified in PEP 277, meaning os.listdir()
will only return unicode strings if it is _called_ with a unicode
argument.
- And then return only unicode, don't attempt to convert to ASCII.
- Don't switch on Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, but simply use the
default encoding if Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding is NULL. This means
os.listdir() can now raise UnicodeDecodeError if the default encoding
can't represent the directory entry. (This seems better than silcencing
the error and fall back to a byte string.)
- Attempted to decribe the above in Doc/lib/libos.tex.
- Reworded the Misc/NEWS items to reflect the current situation.
This checkin also fixes bug #696261 , which was due to os.listdir() not
using Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, like all file system calls are
supposed to.
