d576e9df5f Markup revisions. Nothing was actually required to be able to format it, 
but many conventions were broken.

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?)

45ca3331d9 Move references to RFCs to a "See also" section for consistency with

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.

297bf7ceb5 update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it works 
character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning

120beb6b67 Strengthen the warning against using SerialCookie and SmartCookie. 
(If they're security holes, should they be documented at all?)
Minor rewrites.

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.

304faf944c Fix a markup error that caused formatting to fail. 
Lots of minor markup adjustments as well.

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.

0be5aab04d Merge UNPACK_LIST and UNPACK_TUPLE into a single UNPACK_SEQUENCE, since they 
did the same anyway.

I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of
distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?
 2000-08-11 22:15:52 +00:00

46479d3740 Some minor clarifications and added some index entries. 2000-08-11 20:34:27 +00:00

3ac977e39c O_BINARY: Documented this constant; omission noted by David Ascher. 
access():  Corrected availability statement; error pointed out by
           Tim Peters.

a8e484c8f5 getopt(): revise description of long_options parameter slightly so it will 
be less confusing; add a paragraph separation so that comments about
	the options and long_options parameters don't have references that
	are easily misinterpreted.

Adjust the interactive examples to not need the string module.

Add an example showing how the module is commonly used in a script.

8141cf5c76 Barry's patch to document the new setdefault() method. Slightly
