773d9f09be Document function attributes for both the function type and the method 
type.  The method documentation also includes a new brief discussion
of `bound' vs. `unbound' and why setting an attr on a bound method is
a TypeError.  Includes Skip's suggested text.

0b4e25d0c0 Use \obindex{...} instead of \indexii{...}{type} in many places; this is 
more consistent with other index entries in the documentation.

51f53df4c8 Clarify that the softspace attribute is used by print for state management, 
not as a user-controlled parameter.

1349437e4c When referring to namespaces, always say "namespaces" instead of 
"name spaces".

Inconsistency noted by Keith Briggs <keith.briggs@bt.com>.

66571cc20c Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making them 
hyperlinks to relevant sections.

Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like
objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access
in user-defined classes).

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.

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.

8141cf5c76 Barry's patch to document the new setdefault() method. Slightly 
clarified the summary for default() in the table to indicate the side
effect.

c3fcd6fa0e Added index entry for "file objects"; this is appearantly referenced 
somewhere in the Reference Manual, and someone tried to locate it via
the index.  Report on the omission by Stefan Franke
<sfranke@cdc-group.com>.

f4cbada3f9 Correct documentation for <file>.read(); Python makes a serious 
best-effort to return 'size' bytes.  Point out that this may mean
multiple fread() calls.  Reported by Anders Hammarquist
<iko@iko.pp.se> via the Debian crew.

130072d663 Don't describe something as "below"; that won't make sense for the

hyperlink to be built.

afd974c2ab Document the new list.extend() method. Interesting enough, the 
canonical definition of extend() is very similar to append() except
that the former doesn't list-ify the argument!

64e3b43583 Move files around to get the names to match the module names except for 
case.  Two modules (SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer) still don't match; those
names are just too long!
