Arnaud Delobelle wrote a python script to convert the entries into a
nice 4-column table in an html file. I will be adding that, with a
couple of corrections, to the downloads page.
Why not just add a new section to the current Python Glossary:

http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonGlossary
It should be a separate page. Could an html file be loaded into a wiki
page? (I looked but did not see anything about file uploading in the
help files.) If not, that is your answer.

Awhile ago, in response to confusion about the meaning of "iterable", I decided the Python documentation needed a glossary and created one with that single entry. Adding a glossary to the documentation with a single term seemed kind of pointless, so I didn't check anything into CVS. I'm still interested in getting this off the ground, though. To make it more likely that something significant gets done, I created a Wiki to which people...

Thanks to people who submitted content for the Python Glossary: http://manatee.mojam.com/python-glossary I just completed a first pass at folding it into the Python tutorial. It's now a separate appendix to that document. It will take awhile for the changes to show up on the website and in distributions, but if you have named CVS access to the Python distribution, you can get to it now. People with only anonymous CVS access or no...

Hi, Trying to compile the PythonCE (Validus Medical Systems Python 2.3.4) using eVC++ 4.0 and the Smartphone2003 SDK. Linking is generating 28 errors. I dug into the first one (PyErr_Fetch) and it's in pyerrors.h so I don't see why it misses it. Anyone have an idea? TIA

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
