Andrew M. Kuchling 108943c216 Added a section to the chapter on modules, describing the package system.
The text is almost completely from GvR's essay on packages; some
introductory paragraphs have been removed, and everything after the
'Details' section in the HTML has been dropped (seems too technical).  A
paragraph has been added after the sample package layout stating that there
must be a file called__init__.py in a directory to make it a package.

Guido van Rossum 7011504e27 Improved test set for int() and long() string conversions. 1998-06-30 17:02:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7e0e9555b7 Get rid of the lock; it's no longer needed. 1998-06-30 17:01:06 +00:00

Guido van Rossum cf51dacfb8 Document __copy__() and __deepcopy__() methods. 1998-06-30 16:54:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b68362a3a Use the real name of the module: "smtplib", not "smtp".
Use logical (& consistent) markup.

Added a see-also section at the end.

Guido van Rossum 8ec619f60e Note that readline returns '' on EOF, not "EOF" (whatever that may be). 1998-06-30 16:35:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 472b9a3f06 Clearly I was to quick with the previous commit...
Need to add \optional{} to sort argument too.

Made x a \var in descr of pop.

Fixed note for pop() and mentioned that it is experimental.

Also added pop to index.
1998-06-30 16:02:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 97ea116472 Documented the pop() method for lists.
# The brackets generated by \optional{} are real ugly.  Alas...
1998-06-30 15:56:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9c59ce9b5a Documented os.linesep (line separator). 1998-06-30 15:54:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bf0db032cd Add pop method. 1998-06-30 15:40:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3dd7f3fef0 Added doc strings for methods and a new pop() method. 1998-06-30 15:36:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cd90509d58 As suggested by pson@pson.pp.se, correct the docs for head(), body(),
article().
1998-06-30 14:53:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0f91183b1a Fix the comments describing the return values of the head(), body(),
article() commands.

Andrew M. Kuchling 52a79e8e1c Changed URL to crypto page. 1998-06-30 13:42:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a25969620a Fix by Sjoerd Mullender to support symbolic links and make a backup of
.mirrorinfo.  Fix by me to call string.lstrip(filename) to cope with a
bug in strop.strip() in Python 1.4.  Additionally, I changed all print
statements that print filenames etc. to put them in backquotes so that
it will be more obvious when there's a funny character on one of them
(such as a space...).
1998-06-29 23:17:16 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6c373f758f Document new default arg to groups() and new functions/methods
groupdict() and findall().
1998-06-29 22:48:01 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8ea9f4d10a Fix a stupid little bug: len() of an unsized returns -1 and leaves an
exception waiting to happen next...
1998-06-29 22:26:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 16926bd75e Add PyImport_AppendInittab() an PyImport_ExtendInittab(). 1998-06-29 20:34:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8b3282be9f For completeness, add a dummy load_package() method to RHooks. It
should never be called, so this isn't really needed, but this
signifies that rexec now supports packages -- because ihooks does.
1998-06-29 20:32:57 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9f5c36fddb Support loading of packages. (I had this coded up for a while but
didn't want to commit until it had been tested.  I presume that it
works in Grail.)
1998-06-29 20:31:16 +00:00
Guido van Rossum be0b62cab4 Added findall() to RegexObject -- return a list of all matches in a
string.  Added groupdict() to MatchObject -- return the named groups
as a dict.  Added default argument to groups() to specify what to
return for unmatching groups; groupdict() also has this.

Guido van Rossum 39ef2274a3 Unsigned 1 and 2 byte sized formats shouldn't result in long integer values! 1998-06-29 04:00:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c94f16f156 Oops! Of course, Tim is right -- when the item is not a hex number,
the '%' should be put back in.
1998-06-29 00:42:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 52e86ad05b Speed-up unquote(), inspired by post from Daniel Walton. 1998-06-28 23:49:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 002f7aae08 Note that no .pyc/.pyo files are created for script files. 1998-06-28 19:16:38 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 911ec188c8 # Added missing semicolon (was #ifdef'ed out in edit on Windows). 1998-06-28 17:00:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1d8fb2d894 Added doc strings. 1998-06-28 16:54:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a5e1b008a9 Windows-specific hack to make sure that when LoadLibrary() is called,
the filename contains at least a rudimentary pathname.
(The bad part is that we need to call getcwd() because only a prefix
of ".\\" is not enough -- we prefix the drive letter.)
1998-06-27 21:53:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0ef577b966 Added doc strings. 1998-06-27 20:38:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d2264bb5c3 # Remove an extra blank line from a doc string. 1998-06-27 19:45:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c3bc31e249 Added doc strings. Maybe the doc string for the module itself is a bit
long, but it sure helps!
1998-06-27 19:43:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8a92c627d9 New feature: if the object's type has a non-NULL tp_doc field, that
is returned as the object's __doc__ attribute.

(If only the list of methods would be referenced from the type...)
1998-06-27 18:28:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73d8bff44d Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). Also
document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit()
vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is
obsolete.
1998-06-27 18:25:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a70d160095 Define new macro Py_InitModule3(name, methods, doc) which calls
Py_InitModule4() with appropriate arguments.
1998-06-27 18:21:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 75e9fc31d3 Added doc strings. Also export LockType from the modoule, and give it
a doc string.
1998-06-27 18:21:06 +00:00

Guido van Rossum d9b5208e90 In raw_input(prompt), make sure that str(prompt) really a string
object before using it.

Marangozov.
