Guido van Rossum 27f550cdd5 Nits: document use of $IDLESTARTUP; display idle version 1999-04-22 20:56:23 +00:00

Guido van Rossum e1e1488319 New version to celebrate new command line 1999-04-22 20:50:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3d0ff00c08 Added flush(), for completeness. 1999-04-22 20:50:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eeb88076e7 A lot of changes to make the command line more useful. You can now do:
idle.py -e file ...    -- to edit files
  idle.py script arg ... -- to run a script
  idle.py -c cmd arg ... -- to run a command
Other options, see also the usage message (also new!) for more details:
  -d       -- enable debugger
  -s       -- run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP
  -t title -- set Python Shell window's title
sys.argv is set accordingly, unless -e is used.
sys.path is absolutized, and all relevant paths are inserted into it.

Other changes:
- the environment in which commands are executed is now the __main__ module
- explicitly save sys.stdout etc., don't restore from sys.__stdout__
- new interpreter methods execsource(), execfile(), stuffsource()
- a few small nits

Various small cleanups.
1999-04-22 17:23:34 +00:00
Fred Drake c8993aad10 Logical markup and small nits.
Don't refer to the STDWIN chapter; chances are really good it wasn't
included.  ;-)

Fred Drake bf0f4346af Shorten the section title. 1999-04-22 15:53:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 47894d2858 Don't describe this module as being a popen() wrapper; that's a little
confusing.  This is clearly Unix-specific; label it as such.
1999-04-22 15:19:01 +00:00
Fred Drake a694e00085 Remove \platform declaration; this module is generic. 1999-04-22 15:14:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 5254a6d682 Move stat to the Generic chapter. 1999-04-22 15:01:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ca69a03dd6 Don't refer to the system documentation as "man pages"; too
Unix-centric.  Note that this can be used with the output of
os.fstat() as well as os.stat() and os.lstat().
1999-04-22 14:55:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 7bf96ca32d Make an assertion. 1999-04-22 14:16:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 6532b9b8e0 Updated a comment and the release number. 1999-04-22 14:16:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9f5362bfa6 Some more TODO items. Made up my mind about command line args,
Run/Import, __main__.
1999-04-22 14:07:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 2ea30f4d8c Add warning that last() and previous() don't work for hashtable
databases (opened using hashopen()), as noted by Skip Montanaro on
comp.lang.python.
1999-04-22 14:06:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e62e76c383 Super-elegant patch by Tim Peters that speeds up colorization
dramatically (up to 15 times he claims).  Works by reading more than
one line at a time, up to 100-line chunks (starting with one line and
then doubling up to the limit).  On a typical machine (e.g. Tim's
P5-166) this doesn't reduce interactive responsiveness in a noticeable
way.
1999-04-22 13:38:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 693a2c6581 Script to locate uses of \module where the module referred to is not
the module being documented at that point in the documentation; these
are candidates for conversion to \refmodule, which produces a
hyperlink in the HTML and PDF versions of the output.
1999-04-22 13:08:09 +00:00
Fred Drake e0208cc83c Add a couple of items. 1999-04-22 13:05:52 +00:00
Fred Drake adade928be Fill in a lot of the blanks. Add a start to the LaTeX primer section.
Use Python-traditional XXX comments instead of square brackets that
aren't as obvious or usefully grepable.
1999-04-22 13:05:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 30a535c0f7 Added support for adding environment/macro parameters more cleanly:
\op adds an optional parameter, and \p adds a required parameter.
These are only defined in the context of the parameter list parameter
of the envdesc and macrodesc environments.
1999-04-22 13:03:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eda232fdac Allow longer strings (up to 80 chars each) for version, build,
compiler info.

Fred Drake b11d108cdc The version information here was checked good in 1999, not 199. ;-)

mentioned in the text.
