8ee1a4bdeb Provide a much better (and complete!) description of the lockf() 
function, based on an eyeballing of the code.

fa004ad36c Show '\011', '\012', and '\015' as '\t', '\n', '\r' in strings. 
Switch from octal escapes to hex escapes for other nonprintable characters.

0bbaa515a1 Remove evil "sec:" prefix from some \label markups; this is bad for 
filenames on Windows (& Mac?) platforms.

b1b6a11b28 AttributeList --> NamedNodeMap 
Since there is no such thing as an AttributeList, don't say "attributes"
is one.

f7f185116a Rewrite webbrowser.py to fix various bugs following Ka-Ping Yee's 
complaints.  The new version moves most of its initialization to
package load time; it's simpler, faster, smaller, and adds support for
Mozilla and Links.  Interpretation of the BROWSER variable now works
and is documented.  The open_new entry point and methods are marked
"deprecated; may be removed in 2.1".

0f564eaceb Change some wording to make this work with PDF generation -- using a PDF 
hyperlink at the start of the paragraph confused pdflatex; it saw the
link start while still in vertical mode, which is not allowed.  Including
text before the link forces horizontal mode.

really nasty TeX source to "bleed" into the PDF "bookmarks".

31ab298df6 Remove the dollar sign from the formatting of environment variables -- 
too Unix-specific, and not really needed.  (Already fixed the HTML
formatting, but forgot to mention it in the checkin for python.perl 1.94.)

afc7ce118e Fix \seepep handling -- correct URL to the online PEP repository on SF is 
now generated.  (SF bug #129692.)

Patch from Anthon van der Neut <anthon@mnt.org>:
Work around the removal of content-less paired tags used for name
anchors in some places.  (SF bug #116008.)

Move some class attributes from an artificial SPAN element to otherwise
"useful" elements that are being generated anyway.  Added the class
"versionnote", used for \deprecated, \versionadded, \versionchanged.

b216ab632f Fill out various transcripts and XXX bits, thanks to the WMATA. 
The only missing section is the Nested Scopes section, which has to wait
    to see if a patch is actually committed.  (Plus any other notable changes
    that get made or backed out between now and 2.1final, of course...)

fe385251f4 Make the 'time' argument to the timemodule functions strftime, asctime, 
ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in
all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to
METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265.

ad7c98e264 This patch adds a new builtin unistr() which behaves like str() 
except that it always returns Unicode objects.

A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided.

This closes patch #101664.

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.
