The "winreg" module needs some documentation; is anyone here up to the task? I don't think I know enough about the registry to write something reasonable. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> Corporation for National Research Initiatives

Of course, as soon as I sent this message I remembered that there's also the linuxaudiodev module; that needs documentation as well! (I guess I'll need to add a Linux-specific chapter; ugh.) If anyone wants to document audiodev, perhaps I could avoid the Linux chapter (with one module) by adding documentation for the portable interface. There's also the pyexpat module; Andrew/Paul, did one of you want to contribute something for that? -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> Corporation for National Research Initiatives

Maybe you could adapt the documentation for the registry functions in Mark Hammond's win32all? Not all the APIs are the same but the should mostly do the same thing...

There's also sunaudiodev. Is it documented? linuxaudiodev should be mostly the same.

I would hope so! --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)

I'll take a look at it when I have time, unless anyone beats me to it.

It's been documented for a long time. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> Corporation for National Research Initiatives

I wonder if that anyone could be me? :-) Note that all the win32api docs for the registry all made it into docstrings - so winreg has OK documentation as it is... But I will try and put something together. It will need to be plain text or HTML, but I assume that is better than nothing! Give me a few days... Mark.

I certainly wouldn't object! ;)

Plain text would be better than HTML. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> Corporation for National Research Initiatives
