aef0e890b5 Document the limitation that urllib does not work with proxies which 
require authenication.  This is an implementation limitation rather than
required behavior, and may be fixed in the future.

This closes SourceForge bug #111725.

1c8feae411 New method getnamespace. 
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.

12bba852a9 Rough and incomplete documentation on augmented assignment, which follows 
shortly. Markup also needs checking.

Guido van Rossum
3d0c77b37c Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggested 
that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__.
In fact it must be done *before*.

(Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)

9fa4d61bcc Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>: 
Documentation updates for urlretrieve() and URLopener.retrieve(), to
reflect Randall Hopper's patch for those functions.

This closes SourceForge patch #100837.

character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning

1b07f2bcf6 Initial revision. Markup unchecked. 2000-08-19 14:11:41 +00:00
Fred Drake
512bb72fb0 As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange() 
returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the
source file they're implemented in.

In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is
described as obsolescent.

5215225ea1 Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module import 
name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word.

There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will
now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly
undocumented.

b32aa5ecef Revise the comments about the exceptions module to not refer to source 
code; it is not sufficiently readable now that it in written in C, and
is less likely to be available to end users.

25699f99f4 Martin v. Loewis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:

5772c86816 Document socket.getfqdn(). 2000-08-16 14:21:42 +00:00
Thomas Wouters
caa658d047 Apply SF patch #101151, by Peter S-K, which fixes smtplib's passing of the 
'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This
function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python
wrapper.

4de96c2fd8 Added Marc-Andre Lemburg's documentation for string methods, with some 
massaging for markup consistency.  This closes SourceForge patch #101063.

Added Unicode strings and buffer objects to the list of sequence types.

Small markup nits elsewhere.
