>= 2.0.5. One still is:-(

- changed "group" operator to "groupref"

  the pattern must have a fixed width.

- got rid of array-module dependencies; the match pro-
  gram is now stored inside the pattern object, rather
  than in an extra string buffer.

- cleaned up a various of potential leaks, api abuses,
  and other minors in the engine module.

- use mal's new isalnum macro, rather than my own work-
  around.

- untabified test_sre.py.  seems like I removed a couple
  of trailing spaces in the process...

Revise math_1(), math_2(), stub-generating macros, and function tables to
use PyArg_ParseTuple() and properly provide the function name for error
message generation.
Fix pow() docstring for MPW 3.1; had said "power" instead of "pow".

Typo in string literal: execpt --> except

test is run as a script and when imported via the regression test
framework.

Problem reported by Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>.

openpty():  Fallback code when os.openpty() does not exist attempted to
            call _slave_open(), which should have been slave_open().

This bug only showed on platforms which do not provide a working openpty()
in the C library.

Update the API docs for the new macros Py_UNICODE_ISALPHA() and
Py_UNICODE_ISALNUM().

which are true for alphabetic and alphanumeric characters resp.

The macros are currently implemented using the existing is* tables
but will have to be updated to meet the Unicode standard definitions
(add tables for non-cased letters and letter modifiers).

This is now checked and the error passed on to the caller.

This patch implements relative-path semantics for the "source" facility resembling
those of cpp(1), documents the change, and improves the shlex test main to
make it easier to test this feature.  Along the way, it fixes a name error
in the existing docs.

[Additional documentation markup changes for consistency by FLD.]

Substantial updates to reflect Moshe's Gordon's enhancements to the
module.

Additional changes from Fred to reflect his changes to the module as well.

             and defaults as for filecmp.cmp().  Updated docstring
             accordingly, and formatted it more like others in the standard
             library.

This patch delegates more string functions to string object methods,
uses the varargs delegation syntax, and stops using stringold.

Closes SourceForge patch #100712.

pointed out some of the problems he had following the instructions,
and I stumbled into the others:  MSVC has changed in several
respects, Python has changed the directories into which it builds
its own Windows outputs, and we grew the unusual scheme of
appending "_d" to the names of debug-mode output files.

This should all work with VC6 + CVS Python now.  Some other Windows
geek please confirm!  And the less you know, the better <0.5 wink>.

Explanations and examples for versions of MSVC before 6, and
versions of Python before 2.0b1, have been removed, because
they're too different and so confuse life.  This last step I OK'ed
with Guido first (indeed, 'twas his idea!).

  "lastgroup" is the name of the last matched capturing group,
  "lastindex" is the index of the same group.  if no group was
  matched, both attributes are set to None.

  the (?P#) feature will be removed in the next relase.

- changed max repeat value in engine (to match earlier array fix)

- added experimental "which part matched?" mechanism to sre; see
  http://hem.passagen.se/eff/2000_07_01_bot-archive.htm#416954
  or python-dev for details.

   speedup for some tests, including the python tokenizer.

-- added support for an optional charset anchor to the engine
   (currently unused by the code generator).

-- removed workaround for array module bug.

- minor comment touchups in the C module

-- changed 1.6 to 2.0 in the file headers

-- fixed ISALNUM macro for the unicode locale.  this
   solution isn't perfect, but the best I can do with
   Python's current unicode database.
