Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation. This
version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in
Python (also the one in 1.5.2a).
This version supports XML namespaces.
File names with "funny" characters get translated wrong by
pathname2url (any variety). E.g. the (Unix) file "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp"
gets translated into "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp" which, when interpreted as a
URL is file "/ufs/sjoerd/" with fragment ID "tmp".
Here's an easy fix. (An alternative fix would be to change the
various implementations of pathname2url and url2pathname to include
calls to quote and unquote.
[The main problem is with the normal use of URLs:
url = url2pathname(file)
transmit url
url, tag = splittag(url)
urlopen(url)
]
In addition, this patch fixes some uses of unquote:
- the host part of URLs should be unquoted
- the file path in the FTP URL should be unquoted before it is split
into components.
- because of the latter, I removed all unquoting from ftpwrapper,
and moved it to the caller, but that is not essential
string we find ourselves in, based on the passed in delimiter.
(py-compute-indentation): Fixes for indentation errors when we land
inside a triple quoted string. For example:
def foo():
if os.path.isfile(o_pri_mbox_file) and os.path.isfile(o_pub_mbox_file):
print """\
I found both a private and a public mbox archive file
private: %s
public : %s
I won't move either file, but you should choose one and move it to
%s
You may want to merge them manually, but be careful about exposing private
correspondences to the public.""" % (
o_pri_mbox_file, o_pub_mbox_file, mbox_file)
*----indentation would be wrong on this line.
to color constants (i.e. red constant, green constant, blue
constant). But I haven't hooked this up yet because the UI gets more
crowded and the arrows don't reflect the correct values.
Added "Go to Black" and "Go to White" buttons.

Caused by using just 'char' where 'unsigned char' should have been used.
buffer increment, and sometimes the new buffer size. Make it do what
its name says, and fix the one place where this matters to the caller.
Also add a comment explaining why we call lseek() and then ftell().
But IMHO, this problem really reveals an annoyance in Python's
makesetup. makesetup puts the global include directories "$(INCLUDEPY)
$(EXECINCLUDEPY)" in front of the directories defined by the module in
Setup. Therefore global (potentially older) header files are preferred
over the ones set by the module, which makes it hard to compile new
versions of modules when the old versions are installed. AFAIK, the
other way around is common practice for most other software.
This patch to makesetup would be an potential fix for this problem,
though I don't know if it breaks anything else.
<moduleinfo> element based on various meta information, and
strip some cruftiness. This is more usable for information
extraction, and organizes the information more clearly.
cleanup_synopses(): Rewrite to use create_module_info(), so this
will work with multi-rooted "documents".
when we create a recursive instance, by setting the class variable
'FieldStorageClass' to the desired class. By default, this is set to
None, in which case we use self.__class__ (as before).
