Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +00001This directory contains the LaTeX source to the Python documentation.
2The documentation is not all finished, but good enough to get you some
3idea of how to program in Python.

Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +00005The following are the important latex source files:
Guido van Rossum7f777ed1990-08-09 14:25:15 +00006
Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +00007 tut.tex tutorial
8 mod.tex library reference

Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +000010They both read the style option file "myformat.sty".

Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +000012You can use the Makefile to format, preview and print the documents.
13Type "make tut" or "make mod" to preview either document with xdvi.
14Type "make print" to print them both (this only works if your print
15spooler is set up just like mine...), or "make all" to create postscript
16files that you can you can print using your local printing commands.
17Type "make clean" to get rid of all the intermediate files produced by
18the latex process.

Guido van Rossum5153e5e1991-01-25 13:29:53 +000020You can just as well ignore the Makefile; all you really need is:
21 latex tut
22 latex tut
23 dvips tut | lpr
24and similar for the "mod" document.
