the (locale aware) C lib APIs isalpha() and isalnum().

from unicodectype.c

to switch on support for BSD and SysV on platforms which use glibc
such as Linux.

These #defines are documented in e.g. the file /usr/include/features.h
on Linux platforms and the SUSv2 docs.

  temporary directory ('bdist_base').
Added --dist-dir option to control where the executable is put.

existing SGML, HTML, & XML support, and providing a home for the new
XML support as it becomes documented.

Cleaned up the table of error constants defined in pyexpat.errors; an
extra pair of braces had pretty much destroyed the table!  (Not sure why.)
Moved the pyexpat.errors module documentation into a \section with the
proper headers for a module.

It gets initialized when pyexpat is imported, and is only accessible as an
attribute of pyexpat; it cannot be imported itself.  This allows it to at
least be importable after pyexpat itself has been imported by adding it
to sys.modules, so it is not quite as strange.

This arrangement needs to be better thought out.

implementation.  This was really to test whether my new CVS+SSH
setup is more usable than the old one -- and turns out it is (for
whatever reason, it was impossible to do a commit before that
involved more than one directory).

- Actually count the linefeeds in a the CDATA content.
- Don't call the endtag handler for an unmatched endtag (this makes
  the base class simpler since it doesn't have to deal with unopened
  endtags).
- If the __init__ method is called with keyword argument
  translate_attribute_references=0, don't attempt to translate
  character and entity references in attribute values.

which some C libs define (e.g. glibc).

Added a fallback default value for NSIG which hopefully provides
enough room for signal slots.

Make unicode_compare a true UTF-16 compare function (includes
support for surrogates).

with Python coding stds (max line length, C-style comments).

>= 2.0.5. One still is:-(

- changed "group" operator to "groupref"

  the pattern must have a fixed width.

- got rid of array-module dependencies; the match pro-
  gram is now stored inside the pattern object, rather
  than in an extra string buffer.

- cleaned up a various of potential leaks, api abuses,
  and other minors in the engine module.

- use mal's new isalnum macro, rather than my own work-
  around.

- untabified test_sre.py.  seems like I removed a couple
  of trailing spaces in the process...

Revise math_1(), math_2(), stub-generating macros, and function tables to
use PyArg_ParseTuple() and properly provide the function name for error
message generation.
Fix pow() docstring for MPW 3.1; had said "power" instead of "pow".

Typo in string literal: execpt --> except

test is run as a script and when imported via the regression test
framework.

Problem reported by Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>.

openpty():  Fallback code when os.openpty() does not exist attempted to
            call _slave_open(), which should have been slave_open().

This bug only showed on platforms which do not provide a working openpty()
in the C library.

Update the API docs for the new macros Py_UNICODE_ISALPHA() and
Py_UNICODE_ISALNUM().

which are true for alphabetic and alphanumeric characters resp.

The macros are currently implemented using the existing is* tables
but will have to be updated to meet the Unicode standard definitions
(add tables for non-cased letters and letter modifiers).

This is now checked and the error passed on to the caller.

This patch implements relative-path semantics for the "source" facility resembling
those of cpp(1), documents the change, and improves the shlex test main to
make it easier to test this feature.  Along the way, it fixes a name error
in the existing docs.

[Additional documentation markup changes for consistency by FLD.]

Substantial updates to reflect Moshe's Gordon's enhancements to the
module.

Additional changes from Fred to reflect his changes to the module as well.

             and defaults as for filecmp.cmp().  Updated docstring
             accordingly, and formatted it more like others in the standard
             library.

This patch delegates more string functions to string object methods,
uses the varargs delegation syntax, and stops using stringold.
