Making the LaTeX documentation for Python.
You will need LaTeX2e and makeindex.
There are 4 main manuals
tut tutorial -- 111pp
lib library manual -- 188pp
ref reference manual -- 65pp (now supplied in postscript form only)
ext extending Python -- 49pp
The most useful are probably the library manual, together with the
tutorial for new users, or the reference manual for experienced python users.
qua is a paper on a use of Python that most people will not need.
The library manual can include sections on parts of the library that are
specific to other operating systems, or to python modules that are not included
in this RiscOS port. You can select which of these you require by editing
the file lib.tex -- add a % in front of input lines if you don't want sections
remove them if you do.
I have added sections on RiscOS specific parts of the library, but I have not
changed other parts of the documentation to cover the few RiscOS changes
there.
To make the manuals drag the makefile to !Amu. Make "all" for all 3 manuals
or "tut", "lib" etc for individual manuals.
If you don't have !Amu you can copy the commands from the makefile into
a task window and execute them there.
If you don't have makeindex you can omit the makeindex commands and do without
the indices.
Print the manuals from the files tut.dvi, lib.dvi, ref/ps, ext.dvi .
