\file{}: Use a sans-serif font for the filename itself.
Use the fncychap.sty package for fancy chapter headings.
Replace the \maketitle command with our own format. This is new, but it
looks a lot better than the old one.
Use \renewcommand instead of \def when extending or overriding standard LaTeX
commands. This makes it more LaTeX-like.

$STRIP_INDEX_TT: New flag. If set, the <tt>...</tt> around stuff in the index

Script to fix up the Library Reference index so it's less ugly. The docstring:
...
"""Combine similar index entries into an entry and subentries.
For example:
\item {foobar} (in module flotz), 23
\item {foobar} (in module whackit), 4323
becomes
\item {foobar}
\subitem in module flotz, 23
\subitem in module whackit, 4323
Note that an item which matches the format of a collapsable item but which
isn't part of a group of similar items is not modified.
"""
This results in a much more readable index, with less repitition of text;
especially for common method names.

\itembreak, \itemjoin: Remove unused macros.

\idxcode{}: New macro; used to mark things that would be \code{} for entry
into the index. This allows easily switching things around for the
font used in the index. (O'Reilly seems to keep it all plain roman
in the index. Looks reasonable in the Python documentation as well.)
\*index{}: Use \idxcode{} instead of {\codefont{}}.
