f2d7e5528d make_str_index_entry(): New function. Similar to make_index_entry(), but
includes the string in the returned value instead of the dummy
	filler character.

add_idx():  Override the latex2html function of the same name; this gets
	the anchor properly embedded in the <dt> element, so the index
	works in Grail too.

456035f4b1 The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions
to use the opcodedesc environment.

Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.

Fixed a typo:  "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.

Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent.  Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me.  It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project.  Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.

a610f9f8c1 Added environment for defining PyVM instructions. This is only used in
the libdis.tex file I'm about to check in.

I'm not sure this is really an optimal solution yet, but it may be the best
alternative.  It avoids describing the instructions as either data items or
functions.

This change was discussed with Guido.  (Guido:  Take a look at the LaTeX
output for this; if this is reasonable I'll go ahead and update the perl
code in myformat.perl to match.)

0f280b6099 Use $LOGNAME instead of $USER to get the current user -- it seems to
be the state of the art.

73ec2c0081 Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally
messed up (but not checked in) version in my work files and didn't
notice before releasing 1.5 -- at least the distributed latex file
doesn't have the bogus warning about changed __init__ semantics.

580aa8dbc3 Several changes, e.g. restructuring of the intro to be closer to what
it ought to be.  Maybe the last checkin before 1.5b1 is released.

cb91e7bbd3 Added the "italic correction" command ("\/") to the list of ignored commands.
There is at least one of there in the library reference, and this reduces
the warning count.  We *do* know what to do with it!

e624e0f99e Removed leading comment about this being "introductory" documentation;
compared to most, I'd say this section is fairly thorough.

Fixed \indexsubitem definitions for symbol and token module sub-documents.
Perhaps these should be moved to their own files, but they're awefully
small.

17c8e781c0 libqueue.tex: Documentation for the Queue.py module.
Makefile: Add dependency on libqueue.tex

lib.tex: Place the libqueue.tex documentation just after libthread.tex
since Queue depends on thread support in Python.
