History

Fred Drake 16649a803b Make the syntax for compound command lines more portable (nmake, CygWin). This is probably not sufficient by itself for the info generation, and is being done mostly to keep the style consistent with additional patches that will be applied to Doc/Makefile.		2001-07-17 16:48:55 +00:00

README

This archive contains the standard Python documentation in GNU info
format.  Five manuals are included:

    python-ref.info*	Python Reference Manual
    python-mac.info*	Python Macintosh Modules
    python-lib.info*	Python Library Reference
    python-ext.info*	Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter
    python-api.info*	Python/C API Reference
    python-tut.info*	Python Tutorial

The file python.dir is a fragment of a "dir" file that can be used to
incorporate these documents into an existing GNU info installation:
insert the contents of this file into the "dir" or "localdir" file at
an appropriate point and copy the python-*.info* files to the same
directory.

Thanks go to Milan Zamazal <pdm@freesoft.cz> for providing this
conversion to the info format.

Questions and comments on these documents should be directed to
python-docs@python.org.
