PYTHON DOCUMENTATION TO-DO LIST			-*- indented-text -*-=============================== General------- * Figure out HTMLHelp generation for the Windows world.  Python/C API------------ * The "Very High Level Interface" in the API document has been  requested; I guess it wouldn't hurt to fill in a bit there.  Request   by Albert Hofkamp <a.hofkamp@wtb.tue.nl>.  (Partly done.) * Describe implementing types in C, including use of the 'self'  parameter to the method implementation function.  (Missing material  mentioned in the Extending & Embedding manual, section 1.1; problem  reported by Clay Spence <cspence@sarnoff.com>.)  Heavily impacts one  chapter of the Python/C API manual. * Missing PyArg_ParseTuple(), PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords(),  Py_BuildValue().  Information requested by Greg Kochanski  <gpk@bell-labs.com>.  PyEval_EvalCode() has also been requested. Extending & Embedding--------------------- * More information is needed about building dynamically linked  extensions in C++.  Specifically, the extensions must be linked  against the C++ libraries (and possibly runtime).  Also noted by  Albert Hofkamp <a.hofkamp@wtb.tue.nl>. Reference Manual---------------- * Document the Extended Call Syntax in the language reference.  [Jeremy Hylton] * Document new comparison support for recursive objects (lang. ref.?  library ref.? (cmp() function).  [Jeremy Hylton] Library Reference----------------- * Update the pickle documentation to describe all of the current  behavior; only a subset is described.  __reduce__, etc.  Partial  update submitted by Jim Kerr <jbkerr@sr.hp.com>. * Update the httplib documentation to match Greg Stein's HTTP/1.1  support and new classes.  (Greg, this is yours!) Tutorial-------- * Update tutorial to use string methods and talk about backward  compatibility of same.  NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE--------------------- * In the indexes, some subitem entries are separated from the item  entries by column- or page-breaks.  Reported by Lorenzo M. Catucci  <lorenzo@argon.roma2.infn.it>.  This one will be hard; probably not  really worth the pain.  (Only an issue at all when a header-letter  and the first index entry get separated -- can change as soon as we  change the index entries in the text.)  Also only a problem in the  print version. * Fix problem with howto documents getting the last module synopsis  twice (in \localmoduletable) so we can get rid of the ugly 'uniq'  hack in tools/mkhowto.  (Probably not worth the trouble of fixing.)
