In the error message, say del for del and assign for everything else.

in the mode (it's forbidden).

get_file() must convert 'U' to "r" PY_STDIOTEXTMODE before calling
fopen().

imp_load_module() must accept 'r' or 'U' or something with '+'.

Also reflow some long lines.

Now we just need to make sure people know about it...

    readline in all python versions is configured
    to append a 'space' character for a successful
    completion. But for almost all python expressions
    'space' is not wanted (see coding conventions PEP 8).
    For example if you have a function 'longfunction'
    and you type 'longf<TAB>' you get 'longfunction '
    as a completion. note the unwanted space at the
    end.

    The patch fixes this behaviour by setting readline's
    append_character to '\0' which means don't append
    anything. This doesn't work with readline < 2.1
    (AFAIK nowadays readline2.2 is in good use).

    An alternative approach would be to make the
    append_character
    accessable from python so that modules like
    the rlcompleter.py can set it to '\0'.

[Ed.: I think expecting readline >= 2.2 is fine.  If a completer wants
another character they can append that to the keyword in the list.]

- Add comment explaining the structure of the stack.
- Minor optimization: make stack tuple directly usable as part of return
  value for enter/exit events.

and got confused by certain log files.  Remove logreader_refill and the
associated logic and replace with fgetc.

[ 558914 ] Build md5.c fails on Cray T3E

I've also deleted a comment that I didn't understand.  Feel free to
put it back if it makes/made sense to you.

Using Unicode-aware methods may still die with a NameError on unicode.
Maybe there's a more elegant solution but I doubt anybody cares.)

literals must not contain \u, \U or \N escapes.  (XXX Should they also
not contain non-ASCII characters?)

in there, and convert it to "rb" (or "r" for non-universal-newline builds)
before passing it to fopen().

Fixes #561326.

(or how do I "mark" something to be a candidate?)

fixed an old buglet that caused bdb to be unable to
continue in the botframe, after a breakpoint was set.
the key idea is not to set botframe to the bottom level frame,
but its f_back, which actually might be None.
Additional changes: migrated old exception trick to use
sys._getframe(), which exists both in 2.1 and 2.2 .

Note: I believe Mark Hammond needs to look over his code now.
F5 correctly starts up in the debugger, but later on doesn't stop at a given
breakpoint any longer.
