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.

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.

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 ?

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.

(still at the start of the manual), and "Python Language Services" (late

Language Services."

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.
