The documentation for Python 1.5.2 is now available. The online
version is available at:
http://www.python.org/doc/
Archives of the documentation in HTML, LaTeX, PDF, and PostScript
formats are available at the same location, and may also be downloaded
via FTP from:
ftp://ftp.python.org/pub/python/doc/
If you have any questions or comments on the documentation, please
send email to:
python-docs@python.org
Many modules have been documented (166 total!), including both new
and old modules. There have been some additional refinements of the
"look" of the online version, especially for those of you with CSS
enabled in your Web browsers. There is also more extensive
hyperlinking within the Python Library Reference for your convenience.
A new document, "Documenting Python", is now included. Though still
young, this is a useful reference for documentation contributors. It
includes a great deal of information on the markup used for the Python
documentation, as well as a discussion of where we'll go from here.
Windows users: If you installed Python using the installer rather
than by building from source, you can get the updated documentation by
downloading the HTML archive and unpacking it into the "Doc" directory
of your installation.
Some re-organization of the documentation area on the Web site
should make it easier to locate and download documentation.
Thanks go out to all the individuals who have contributed sections
or sent in comments and bug reports; this release of the documentation
is substantially better thanks to the efforts of the Python community!
Enjoy!
