Make references to the posix module hyperlinks.

*missing* content-type at the outer level of a POST defaults to
urlencoded.  In all other circumstances, the default is read_singe().

in the string module.

Add a bunch of new tests for extended startswith/endswith arguments.

EditorWindow.py:

+ Added get_tabwidth & set_tabwidth "virtual text" methods, that get/set the
widget's view of what a tab means.

+ Moved TK_TABWIDTH_DEFAULT here from AutoIndent.

+ Renamed Mark's get_selection_index to get_selection_indices (sorry, Mark,
but the name was plain wrong <wink>).

FormatParagraph.py:  renamed use of get_selection_index.

AutoIndent.py:

+ Moved TK_TABWIDTH_DEFAULT to EditorWindow.

+ Rewrote set_indentation_params to use new VTW get/set_tabwidth methods.

+ Changed smart_backspace_event to delete whitespace back to closest
preceding virtual tab stop or real character (note that this may require
inserting characters if backspacing over a tab!).

+ Nuked almost references to the selection tag, in favor of using
get_selection_indices.  The sole exception is in set_region, for which no
"set_selection" abstraction has yet been agreed upon.

+ Had too much fun using the spiffy new features of the format-paragraph
cmd.

- Revise abstract based on Guido's comments from way back.
- Point out that LaTeX is a structured system & we're using it that
  way.
- Add a small section on marking up code examples.

Read the comments (which I reformatted using the new feature :-)
for some limitations.

reformatted some comment blocks to show off a cool feature I'm about
to check in next.

<BennettBenson@mn.mediaone.net>.

this functionality is not present (e.g. when used with a vintage
Python 1.5.2 installation) top-level functions are not listed.

(Hmm...  Any distribution of IDLE 0.5 should probably include a copy
of the new pyclbr.py!)

on Win95 & Win98.

list of lines returned by get_region() contains an empty line at the
end representing the start of the next line, and this shouldn't be
commented out!

Hammond: record top-level functions (as Function instances, a simple
subclass of Class).  You must use the new interface readmodule_ex() to
get these, though.

class creation - tries to locate an __init__ function.  Also updated
the test code to reflect your new "***" change.

CallTipWindow from the text control makes sense, and actually makes
the control look better IMO.

Ditto "***" for kwargs.

__init__.py it isn't read.  (Sjoerd just came up with this, so it's
not heavily tested.)

Other (yet unsolved) package problems noted by Sjoerd:

- If you have a package and a module inside that or another package
  with the same name, module caching doesn't work properly since the
  key is the base name of the module/package.
- The only entry that is returned when you readmodule a package is a
  __path__ whose value is a list which confuses certain class browsers
  that I wrote.  (Hm, this could be construed as a feature.)

0.5 MB of the 1 MB available by default for stack on Win32 platforms).

I've updated cPickle.c to use class exceptions:

Changed pickle error types to classes:

  PickleError
     PicklingError
        UnpickleableError
     UnpicklingError

And change the handling of unpickleable objects so that an UnpickleableError
is raised with the unpickleable object as the argument.  UnpickleableError
has a reasonable string representation and provides access to the problem
object, which is useful during debugging.

[I'm still waiting for patches to do the same to pickle.py.]
