all examples in a given text file. (analagous to "testmod")
- Minor docstring fixes.
- Added module_relative parameter to DocTestFile/DocTestSuite, which
  controls whether paths are module-relative & os-independent, or
  os-specific.

Make PySequence_Check() and PyMapping_Check() handle NULL inputs.  This
goes beyond what most of the other checks do, but it is nice defensive
programming and solves the OP's problem.

When this file is sourced in, or used as, one's vimrc file it will set the proper settings to follow the style guidelines laid out in PEPs 7 & 8 as best it can without forcing extraneous settings.

Suggested settings are commented out and included at the end of the file.

The goal is to have this file prevent as much as possible from deviating from the style guidelines.  It is not meant to collect every cool macro possible for Python.  Any useful settings for features included with Vim can be included and commented out, but anything overly extraneous should be left out.

Various code cleanups and optimizations (saves about 40% on testsuite
execution time and on the telco benchmark).

* caches results of various operations on self (esp. checks for being
  a special value).

* _WorkRep now uses ints and longs for intermediate computations.

- Minor wording changes
- Changed the docs to reflect the fact that multiple option directives
  can be specified on a single line (and updated the directive
  production list, as well).

  - Fixed bug in handling of absolute paths.
  - If run from an interactive session, make paths relative to the
    directory containing sys.argv[0] (since __main__ doesn't have
    a __file__ attribute).

of the Template.delimiter attribute, we make use of the delimiter in the
escaped group, and in the safe_substitute() method more robust.

Now, .delimiter should be the unescaped delimiter literal, e.g. '$' or '&', or
whatever.  The _TemplateMetaclass will re.escape() this value when it builds
the pattern.

   "AutoReq: 0" to disable automatic dependency searching.

os.path.abspath(self.rpm_base) instead of os.getcwd() + '/' + self.rpm_base

High level error message was stomping useful detailed messages from lower
level routines.

The new approach is to augment string error messages returned by the low
level routines.  The provides both high and low level information.  If
the exception value is not a string, no changes are made.

To see the improved messages in action, type:
   import random
   class R(random): pass
   class B(bool): pass

Treat comparing a date to a datetime like a mixed-type comparison.

module type with silly arguments.  (The exact name can be quibbled
over, if you care).

This was partially inspired by bug #1014215 and so on, but is also
just a good idea.

separates ip address from the port to accommodate ipv6 addresses.

to make it clear that it is possible to pass None as the
separator argument to get the default "any whitespace" separator.

* The parameterization of "delimiter" was incomplete.
* safe_substitute's code for braced delimiters should only be executed
  when braced is not None.
* Invalid pattern group names now raise a ValueError.  Formerly, the
  convert code would fall off the end and improperly return None.

Beefed-up tests.

* Test delimiter override for all paths in substitute and safe_substitute.
* Alter unittest invocation to match other modules (now it itemizes the
  tests as they are run).

Renamed the new generator at Trevor's recommendation.
The name HardwareRandom suggested a bit more than it
delivered (no radioactive decay detectors or such).
