f7685d79e2 Fix up the synopsis table stuff so it gets things right at each chapter,
instead of stringing it all together.

Yay!

b3a3ed8f72 Update @INC so we can 'require' modules in Doc/perl/.
Call the localmoduletable handling once the document is complete & synopses
have been collected.

a0f4c94af6 Added module synopsis support with one (big) caveat: All the modules are
listed in each chapter that has a \localmoduletable.  This will be fixed,
and everything else seems to be working fine.

SynopsisTable objects are used to store the table of module synopses for
a single chapter it the manual.

2a502d8304 Use 'S' format character for the optional constructor argument, so we
get a decent error message when it's not a string (instead of
confusing errors when trying to use the thing).

c2aa9fbad9 Remove use of the avant package; Helvetica isn't as pretty, but works for
acroread.  The problem this solves is likely dependent on font availability,
so keeping things simple is a good solution.

5420f3321d \textunderscore: Re-define with a width that's more appropriate for the
courier font used in Python code.  This still isn't *good*, but
	makes the width about right in most cases.  (Exception: it's now
	a little wide in \var words.)

3bd9ab0ef3 Use the new module synopsis syntax, even though we don't need a synopsis table
for this chapter.  This protects against backend changes for \declaremodule.

8cab549c0a use_latex(): Hack to pass .syn files though uniq, so that the last module
in a HOWTO document isn't listed in the synopsis table twice.  This
	will do until the real bug is found (low priority!).

a488f30627 Lots of new stuff for "module synopsis support." Public interface consists
of three macros, one which replaces some of the current conventions used in
the module sections:

  \declaremodule:  Requires two parameters: module type (standard, builtin,
	extension), and the module name.  An optional parameter should be
	given as the basis for the module's "key" used for linking to or
	referencing the section.  The "key" should only be given if the
	module's name contains underscores, and should be the name with the
	underscore's stripped.  This should be the first thing after the
	\section used to introduce the module.

  \modulesynopsis:  Requires a single parameter: a short, one-liner
	description of the module that can be used as part of the chapter
	introduction.  This should probably be placed just after the
	\declaremodule, but may be placed anywhere in the same section.

  \localmoduletable:  No parameters.  If a .syn file exists for the current
	chapter (or for the entire document in howto docs), a synopsistable
	is created with the contents loaded from the .syn file.

Some re-organization due to module synopsis support.

Some \def's changed to \newcommand's.

Fred Drake
1cc6d53f65 \py@ModSynopsisFilename: New macro; gives names of the "current" .syn file.
\chapter:  Extended, ensures that a pending module synopsis is written out
	and then closes the .syn file for the preceeding chapter.

d58d7647f3 Several changes to support inclusion of filename in relevent
exceptions:

posix_error_with_filename(): New function which calls
PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilename()

The following methods have been changed to call
posix_error_with_filename():

    posix_1str()
    posix_strint()
    posix_strintint()
    posix_do_stat()
    posix_mkdir()
    posix_utime()
    posix_readlink()
    posix_open()

INITFUNC(): os.error (nee PosixError) is PyExc_OSError

52ddc0e756 PyFile_FromString(): If an exception occurs, pass in the filename that
was used so it's reflected in the IOError.  Call
PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilename().
