PYTHON DOCUMENTATION TO-DO LIST -*- indented-text -*-
===============================
* 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>.)
* Complete the "Matching vs. Searching" subsection in the re module
section.
* 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.)
* In the extensions manual, 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>.
* Update the pickle documentation to describe all of the current
behavior; only a subset is described. __reduce__, etc.
* Update the code module documentation.
* 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.
* 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.sh. (Probably not worth the trouble of
fixing.)
* Figure out HTMLHelp generation for the Windows world.
* Before next Python release, document that the mode parameter to
wave.open() may be omitted, and how it is determined if omitted.
