Suggested on c.l.py by William Tanksley, and I like it.

Remove __main__ from the index of built-in modules.
Miscellaneous compatibility fixes.

Add getabsfile() for getting a most-normalized path.

Remove -no-about-splash option (not understood by all Netscapes).

When possible, display strings containing backslashes using r'' notation.

- Imaging and Numeric are now also available under Carbon.
- Started working on the active installer.

- Imaging and Numeric are now also available under Carbon.

(Also remove warning about module-level global decl, because we can't
distinguish from code passed to exec.)

Define PyCompilerFlags type contains a single element,
cf_nested_scopes, that is true if a nested scopes future statement has
been entered at the interactive prompt.

New API functions:
    PyNode_CompileFlags()
    PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags()
    -- same as their non Flags counterparts except that the take an
       optional PyCompilerFlags pointer

compile.c: In jcompile() use PyCompilerFlags argument.  If
    cf_nested_scopes is true, compile code with nested scopes.  If it
    is false, but the code has a valid future nested scopes statement,
    set it to true.

pythonrun.c: Create a new PyCompilerFlags object in
    PyRun_InteractiveLoop() and thread it through to
    PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags().

for the translator to update; that is compatible with xgettext 0.10.35.

MacOS X ports.  Change section header to beta 1.

defined and export both names.

Solaris also does not define CBAUDEX; it is not clear that CBAUDEXT
(which is defined there) is the same thing, so we only protect against
the lack of CBAUDEX.

some operators (style guide conformance).

there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents
in the online environment since LaTeX2HTML generates lots of tables of links
anyway.

Various markup consistency nits.

certain Linux systems.

- In _portable_ftell(), try fgetpos() before ftello() and ftell64().
  I ran into a situation on a 64-bit capable Linux where the C
  library's ftello() and ftell64() returned negative numbers despite
  fpos_t and off_t both being 64-bit types; fgetpos() did the right
  thing.

- Define a new typedef, Py_off_t, which is either fpos_t or off_t,
  depending on which one is 64 bits.  This removes the need for a lot
  of #ifdefs later on.  (XXX Should this be moved to pyport.h?  That
  file currently seems oblivious to large fille support, so for now
  I'll leave it here where it's needed.)

of these "search the directory" schemes (including this one) are still prone
to making mistakes.

Robustify: don't rely on modules being present in sys.modules.

Add checks for .pyo and .pyd.
Collapse docfunction, docmethod, docbuiltin into the one method docroutine.
Small formatting fixes.
Link the segments of a package path in the title.
Link to the source file only if it exists.
Allow modules (e.g. repr.py) to take precedence over built-ins (e.g. repr()).
Add interruptible synopsis scanner (so we can do searches in the background).
Make HTTP server quit.
Add small GUI for controlling the server and launching searches (like -k).
    (Tested on Win2k, Win98, and Linux.)

(please not that the library reference does *not* include the
urllib2 documnetation -- that will wiat for Fred)

the more recent versions of that platform, so we use the value (time_t)(-1)
as the error value.  This is the type used in the OpenVMS documentation:

This closes SF tracker bug #404240.

Also clean up an exception message when detecting overflow of time_t values
beyond 4 bytes.
