Extension Patch.

Note: this could use some testing on NeXT, DG/UX, or BeOS, because of
the changes in the Makefile regarding $(LDLIBRARY).

under CYGWIN as shared libraries (DLLs).

Note: I've reordered acconfig.h and config.h.in to obtain alphabetical
order (modulo case and leading _).

I've skipped all bugfixes, Unicode, distutils changes.  But this
should be a start!

additions to library docs.#

with spaces in filename.

I changed the module to use string methods instead of the string
module.  Also, instead of stripping the last character of the filename
(assuming this is the linefeed), I strip trailing whitespace (assuming
creating files with trailing whitespace in their name cannot possibly
be a wise idea).

(Note that I believe that /F's "workaround for broken uuencoders" is
no longer needed since the recent fix to binascii.c, but I'll leave it
in since it appears pretty harmless.)

curses and readline (for Linux, at least).

These are done as shared libraries by default, and so is bsddb -- that
seems to make the most sense.

and Py_Finalize().  It seems to dump core right now...

since! :-( ).

codec to test all charmap codec features.

As side-effect of moving the test codec into a new module, the encodings
package codec import mechanism is checked as well.

without a name when the optional tagname arg isn't specified.  Was
actually creating a mapping with an empty string as the name.

    Wasn't built on Windows; not in config.c either.
    Module init function missing DL_EXPORT magic.
    test_xreadline output file obviously wrong (started w/ "test_xrl").
    test program very unclear about what was expected.

documentation was written by Jeff Epler (thanks!).

Resurrected Small Carbon Python as a target in PythonStandSmall. Still no GUSI, though, so no socket/select/threads.

Carbon defines {Get,Set}ControlDataHandle, so unfortunately our variants on {Get,Set}ControlData have gotten an underscore: GetControlData_Handle, etc.

Carbon defines {Get,Set}ControlDataHandle, so unfortunately our variants on {Get,Set}ControlData have gotten an underscore: GetControlData_Handle, etc. This is an incompatible change:-(

Various tweaks to make it everything build and compile again under carbon. Mainly greylisted functions.

to the Global Module Index for a set of documents.  This is used to include
a reference to the global index from the per-document module indexes, so
that it is just a little easier to find.

(Someone suggested this, but I do not remember who.  Please let me know if
it was you -- thanks!)

the xreadlines module and lets it do its thing.)

changes for safety and tuning.

Clarify the handling of characters following backslashes in raw strings.

Moved the mutex docs to be adjacent to the sched docs, since these are
meant to be used together (if they are used at all!).

   os.pathsep

    encounters a string with an unmatched quote, by adding a check for
    EOF in the 'quotes' state.

#127718: '@' and '`' seem to be confused.

a fallback for TELL64.  Fixes SF Bug #128119.

including "tmpfile" in the posix_methods[] array is wrong -- should be
HAVE_TMPFILE, not HAVE_TMPNAM.
