[issue25931] os.fork() command distributed in windows Python27 (in SocketServer module)
by R. David Murray 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

R. David Murray added the comment: They aren't currently defined conditionally, though, and haven't ever been, so I'm not sure it is worth chaning that. However, we should probably add an 'availability' line, since they aren't (effectively) available on Windows. ---------- assignee: -> docs@python components: +Documentation -Library (Lib), Windows nosy: +docs@python, r.david.murray stage: -> needs patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25931> _______________________________________

[issue27178] Unconverted RST marking in interpreter tutorial
by Nathan Harold 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

New submission from Nathan Harold: There's a bit of uninterpreted RST markup: 3.6.. _tut-using: at the top of the second section of the tutorial (https://docs.python.org/3.6/tutorial/interpreter.html) in the documentation for 3.6 only. (I can see this in the offline copy I received with 3.6.0a1 as well.) It appears that this originated in 96328:dfe62f685538, which changed various references to Python to say 3.6 instead of 3.5. This line had formerly just said: .. _tut-using: My best guess is that this was just an accident. I can't find a precedent or meaning for the changed notation, and there were no similar changes to any other files, either. I've included a patch for this line. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: fix.diff keywords: patch messages: 266840 nosy: docs@python, nharold priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Unconverted RST marking in interpreter tutorial type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file43093/fix.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27178> _______________________________________
