* Got rid of Modules/imgformat.c (will be distributed with Jack's
4+
img package)

7+
copyright notice (separate file)

Wed Oct 5 11:13:13 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
10+
11+
* Modules/config.c.in: don't include frozen.c when frozen (the new
12+
freeze script compiles it separately)
13+
14+
* Lib/os.py: add dummy import posixpath, for freeze script
15+
16+
* Python/marshal.c (r_object): plugged memory leak in reading of
17+
code objects
18+
19+
* Modules/config.c.in (getpythonpath): always return malloc'ed
20+
memory -- save a static pointer to free next time (prevents leaks)
21+
22+
Thu Sep 29 10:35:28 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
23+
24+
* Grammar/Grammar: got rid of history; changed some diagram
25+
commands
26+
27+
* Lib/types.py: cosmetic changes
28+
29+
* Mac/{config.c,macosmodule.c}: new interface to (a few bits of)
30+
the Mac OS
31+
32+
* Modules/xxmodule.c: integrated with xxobject.c by Jack
33+
34+
* Modules/(posix,socket}module.c: more NT changes
35+
36+
* Python/traceback.c: security fix -- check for buffer oveflow
37+
before concatenating sys.path item and module name
38+
39+
* Python/ceval.c, Include/ceval.h: promote MakePendingCalls to
40+
global: Py_MakePendingCalls. Also guard against recursive calls
41+
42+
* Python/pythonmain.c: fatal error if can't alloc mem for -c
43+
string
44+
45+
* Python/pythonrun.c: add string "Python" to fatal error message
46+
47+
Wed Sep 28 16:39:09 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
48+
49+
* Objects/longobject.c: change ValueError to OverflowError when
50+
converting to int
51+
52+
* Objects/xxobject.c: changed to use new style (not finished?)
53+
54+
* Objects/stringobject.c: use HAVE_LIMITS instead of __STDC__
55+
56+
* Objects/rangeobject.c: modernized
57+
58+
* Objects/floatobject.c: add overflow check when converting float
59+
to int and implement truncation towards zero using ceil/float
60+
61+
* Parser/intrcheck.c: make 'interrupted' global (forgot for
62+
whom...)
63+
64+
* Include/rename1.h: don't even define Py_FPROTO
65+
66+
* Python/{modsupport.c,getargs.c,Makefile.in},
67+
Include/modsupport.h: moved getargs() to its own file and
68+
re-implemented it entirely to support optional arguments, multiple
69+
arguments without surrounding parentheses
70+
(when called as newgetargs()), and better error messages
71+
72+
* Include/classobject.h, Objects/classobject.c,
73+
Python/{ceval.c,bltinmodule.c}: entirely redone operator
74+
overloading. The rules for class instances are now much more
75+
relaxed than for other built-in types
76+
(whose coerce must still return two objects of the same type)
77+
78+
Sun Sep 18 07:26:39 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
79+
80+
* Python/pythonrun.c (print_error): print only last line of
81+
multi-line source line
82+
83+
* Parser/tokenizer.c (tok_nextc): count line numbers when parsing
84+
strings
85+
86+
Fri Sep 16 15:54:56 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
87+
88+
* Python/modsupport.c (do_arg): added error message if "O!" fails;
89+
change type of converter for "O&" to function returning int taking
90+
an object* and a void* parameter; it should return 1 for success
91+
or return 0 and set an exception for failure to convert
92+
93+
Wed Sep 14 14:08:44 1994 Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
94+
95+
* Include/Python.h: new header file for new naming scheme
96+
97+
* various modules: #include "Python.h" and remove most remporary
98+
renaming hacks
99+
100+
* Lib/whrandom.py: if seed is (0,0,0), initialize from current
101+
time; default seed's arguments to (0,0,0)
102+
103+
* Python/ceval.c (eval_code), Include/ceval.h: added registry of
104+
pending functions (to be used by functions that are called
105+
asynchronously, like UNIX signal handlers or Mac I/O completion
106+
routines)
107+
108+
Wed Sep 14 11:05:36 1994 Guido van Rossum ([email protected])
109+
110+
* Doc/libsys.tex (section{Built-in Module \sectcode{sys}}):
111+
documented sys.check_interval
112+
113+
Tue Sep 13 21:35:19 1994 Guido van Rossum ([email protected])
114+
115+
* Import/pythonrun.h, Python/{import,pythonrun}.c,
116+
mac/macsetfiletype.c: changes by Jack to execute .pyc file passed
117+
as command line argument. On the Mac .pyc files are given a
118+
special type so they can be double-clicked
119+
120+
* Modules/stropmodule.c (strop_[r]find): change index range check
121+
-- don't raise ValueError buit silently clip when it's out of
122+
range (this is compatible with slicing)
