Fixed example to load the startup file from a script (didn't test for the
...
file's existance).
Removed some XXX comments about extension modules which support pickling.
Added text from AMK about the readline and rlcompleter modules.
Thanks, AMK!

Normalized case rules in section headings.
...
Moved stuff from "Recent Additions to 1.1" to "More on Defining Functions".
This means there's now a short section on "Defining Functions" immediately
followed by a long section "More on Defining Functions."

Convert LaTeX support to create a new class of documents. HTML generation
...
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).
This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.

listing in column 0 of the file.
Remove pagenumbering / pagestyle cruft.
Use more logical and less physical markup.

Make examples consistently use 4-space indentation.
...
Use \file{} for file names.
Prefer \code{blat} and \emph{blat} to {\tt blat} and {\em blat}; this matches
current style in the Library Reference a bit better.
Made the example startup banner current. The version number should be
bumped before the next release.

Change Python-as-executable-script example to use "#! /usr/bin/env python"
...
since that's now the recommended way to do it.
In pickling discussion, change "code{pickle}" (not missing leading "\") to
"This" since the immediately preceeding sentence ended with the same text
(with the proper "\"). Fixes a formatting bug and an odd glitch in the
writing.

(tut.tex): Added matching \normalsize after \small font control command

(and the contents it was supposed to be affecting). The latest
LaTeX2HTML handles these, but didn't close it as expected. This
handles that problem and does not affect the PostScript output.
