5b09eeea89 Clarify that even though some of the relevant specifications define the
order in which form variables should be encoded in a request, a CGI script
should not rely on that since a client may not conform to those specs, or
they may not be relevant to the request.
Closes SF bug #596866.

34a37b807a Re-commit Ping's patch to the cgi and cgitb documentation, using the
right version this time.  Thanks, Ping!
(This was from SF patch #494582, "\index -> \indexii" version.)

c37b65ee10 Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group.  These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

84e58ab722 For the escape() function, added a reference to the quoteattrs() function
in xml.sax.saxutils, since that is the right function to use for quoting
attribute values.
This closes SF bug #444707.

Cleaned up a variety of other minor markup errors.

91f2f26d75 Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make
translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more
difficult for non-native speakers.

9f9bd6af78 Simplify an example based on comment from Thomas Holenstein <thomas@hex.ch>:
Do not use an extra flag variable to test only once in one subsequent if
statement.

f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.

6ef871ce2f Logical markup.
Lots of nits in both.

1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
