-# 0,0,1    06-Mar-1999
-#    initial version posted
-# 0,0,2    06-Mar-1999
-#    loosened parsing:
-#        cater to stinkin' tabs
-#        don't insist on a blank after PS2 prefix
-#            so trailing "... " line from a compound stmt no longer
-#            breaks if the file gets whitespace-trimmed
-#    better error msgs for inconsistent leading whitespace
-# 0,9,1    08-Mar-1999
-#    exposed the Tester class and added client methods
-#        plus docstring examples of their use (eww - head-twisting!)
-#    fixed logic error in reporting total # of tests & failures
-#    added __test__ support to testmod (a pale reflection of Christian
-#        Tismer's vision ...)
-#    removed the "deep" argument; fiddle __test__ instead
-#    simplified endcase logic for extracting tests, and running them.
-#        before, if no output was expected but some was produced
-#        anyway via an eval'ed result, the discrepancy wasn't caught
-#    made TestClass private and used __test__ to get at it
-#    many doc updates
-#    speed _SpoofOut for long expected outputs
-# 0,9,2    09-Mar-1999
-#    throw out comments from examples, enabling use of the much simpler
-#        exec compile(... "single") ...
-#        for simulating the runtime; that barfs on comment-only lines
-#    used the traceback module to do a much better job of reporting
-#        exceptions
-#    run __doc__ values thru str(), "just in case"
-#    privateness of names now determined by an overridable "isprivate"
-#        function
-#    by default a name now considered to be private iff it begins with
-#        an underscore but doesn't both begin & end with two of 'em; so
-#        e.g. Class.__init__ etc are searched now -- as they always
-#        should have been
-# 0,9,3    18-Mar-1999
-#    added .flush stub to _SpoofOut (JPython buglet diagnosed by
-#        Hugh Emberson)
-#    repaired ridiculous docs about backslashes in examples
-#    minor internal changes
-#    changed source to Unix line-end conventions
-#    moved __test__ logic into new Tester.run__test__ method
-# 0,9,4    27-Mar-1999
-#    report item name and line # in failing examples
-# 0,9,5    29-Jun-1999
-#    allow straightforward exceptions in examples - thanks to Mark Hammond!
-# 0,9,6    16-Jan-2001
-#    fiddling for changes in Python 2.0:  some of the embedded docstring
-#        examples no longer worked *exactly* as advertised, due to minor
-#        language changes, and running doctest on itself pointed that out.
-#        Hard to think of a better example of why this is useful <wink>.
-# 0,9,7    9-Feb-2001
