Raymond Hettinger 851181bca6 Remove discussion of loop variables in the form x[a] or x.a.
Deprecation of that form is a subject encompassing all for-loop constructs
and is not specific to this PEP.  Also, most people are not aware that those
forms are even possible, so it is prudent to not even bring it up as that
would inevitably increase the number of people trying it in their code.

Fred Drake 2aa4a939f1 Add instructions for updating the doc/ are of the website.
This probably needs further elaboration; I'm not sure this really even
belongs in the PEP, though.

Fred Drake 41b0a48d85 Remove instructions for building the HTML Help; they are now part of
PEP 101.
2003-09-30 04:51:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 4de8d6823c Move instructions for building the HTML Help into PEP 101 from PEP 102; this
locates all the instructions for building documentation in one of the PEPs;
the other incorporates the instructions by reference.

Fred Drake 69eb8f0f61 describe the commands needed to build the documetation and post it in
the FTP area of python.org
2003-09-30 04:35:01 +00:00
Fred Drake ca50274a4b Update some of the information about documentation build procedures.
Much of it was outdated.  I still need to document *how* some of the
steps are carried out.

Tim Peters ce48e1a732 In the section on the __reduce__ API, the description of the state
argument used an implicit __setitem__ in the last-resort case, but
the implementation actually uses setattr.  Repaired the pseudocode
to match reality.  Doc bug spotted by Jim Fulton.
2003-08-04 19:08:57 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 6e249d8955 * Document the reasoning for having zip(*[]) return [] rather than raising
an exception.

* Add notes about the itertools module addressing other concerns listed in
  the pep.

Barry Warsaw 8c01e74084 Moving PEP 320 to "Other Informational PEPs" so it's easier to find.
