Issue #5845: Enable tab-completion in the interactive interpreter by default, thanks to a new sys.__interactivehook__.

(original patch by Éric Araujo)

Improve documentation for PEP 370 support in site module (#8617).

Sat, 06 Aug 2011 01:51:07 +0200

Improve documentation for PEP 370 support in site module (#8617).

site.USER_BASE and site.USER_SITE are now fully documented. PEP 370 is
outdated with respects to the Mac framework situation, but the code in
sysconfig and the example in the 3.2 What’s New document helped me find
the right values to document for Mac OS X.

The command-line interface of the site module, partly documented in the
3.2 What’s New, is fully described in the module docs.

The purpose of the usercustomize module is explained in the site docs,
with a gentle introduction in the tutorial (right after the section that
talks about PYTHONSTARTUP; a comment mentions it should be moved from
the tutorial to another file, but that will be another bug).

Various markup and wording improvements were made along the way in the
site module docs. Duplicate and incomplete declarations of environment
variables have also been removed (the original bug report was actually
about these entries :). The site module docs are still a bit messy;
I’ll see about improving them for #11553.

All these sections are copiously interlinked and findable from the doc
indexes.

tuple.__repr__ did not consider a reference loop as it is not possible from
Python code; but it is possible from C. object.__str__ had the issue of not
expecting a type to doing something within it's tp_str implementation that
could trigger an infinite recursion, but it could in C code.. Both found
thanks to BaseException and how it handles its repr.

Closes issue #1686386. Thanks to Thomas Herve for taking an initial stab at
coming up with a solution.

Made the various is_* operations return booleans. This was discussed
with Cawlishaw by mail, and he basically confirmed that to these is_*
operations, there's no need to return Decimal(0) and Decimal(1) if
the language supports the False and True booleans.

Also added a few tests for the these functions in extra.decTest, since
they are mostly untested (apart from the doctests).

Splits Modules/_bsddb.c up into bsddb.h and _bsddb.c and adds a C API
object available as bsddb.db.api. This is based on the patch submitted
by Duncan Grisby here:

Let the O/S supply a port if none of the default ports can be used.
This should make the tests more robust at the expense of allowing
tests to be sloppier by not requiring them to cleanup after themselves.
(It will legitamitely help when running two test suites simultaneously
or if another process is already using one of the predefined ports.)

Also simplifies (slightLy) the exception handling elsewhere.

Backport fixes for the code that decodes octal escapes (and for PyString
also hex escapes) -- this was reaching beyond the end of the input string
buffer, even though it is not supposed to be \0-terminated.
This has no visible effect but is clearly the correct thing to do.
(In 3.0 it had a visible effect after removing ob_sstate from PyString.)

Tutorial update for 3.0 by Paul Dubois.

Tutorial update for 3.0 by Paul Dubois.

I had to fix a few markup issues in controlflow.rst and modules.rst.

There's a unicode issue on line 448 in introduction.rst that someone else needs to fix.

Improve documentation for PEP 370 support in site module (#8617).

Fri, 19 Aug 2011 08:20:01 +0200

Improve documentation for PEP 370 support in site module (#8617).

site.USER_BASE and site.USER_SITE are now fully documented. PEP 370 is
outdated with respects to the Mac framework situation, but the code in
sysconfig and the example in the 3.2 What’s New document helped me find
the right values to document for Mac OS X.

The command-line interface of the site module is also described in the
module docs.

The purpose of the usercustomize module is explained in the site docs,
with a gentle introduction in the tutorial (right after the section that
talks about PYTHONSTARTUP; a comment mentions it should be moved from
the tutorial to another file, but that will be another bug).

Various markup and wording improvements were made along the way in the
site module docs. Duplicate and incomplete declarations of environment
variables have also been removed (the original bug report was actually
about these entries :). The site module docs are still a bit messy;
I’ll see about improving them for #11553.

All these sections are copiously interlinked and findable from the doc
indexes.
