| This directory contains the source to the Python documentation. |
| |
| Unfortunately it's not not very readable, complete or up-to-date yet -- |
| in other words, I'm still working on it! |
| |
| There are four documents and a macro file: |
| |
| macros.ms macros .so'ed by the documents |
| |
| tut.ms informal tutorial |
| mod.ms description of standard modules |
| ref.ms Python language reference manual (embryonic) |
| paper.ms conference paper about Python (embryonic) |
| |
| XXX There should also be a man page (extracted from sec. 2 of the tutorial) |
| |
| To typeset one of the documents on the default Postscript printer, chdir |
| to this directory (otherwise the macros aren't found!) and issue the |
| command |
| |
| pstroff -ms file.ms |
| |
| When typesetting all documents, issue a separate command for each. |
| |
| You can also use the Makefile, at your own risk. |
