Changed to pay attention to the 'runtime_library_dirs' list (= 'rpath'
option in the 'build_ext' command):
* in ccompiler.py: 'gen_lib_options()' now takes 'runtime_library_dirs'
parameter
* in unixccompiler.py and msvccompiler.py: now pass
'self.runtime_library_dirs' to 'gen_lib_options()', and define
'runtime_library_dir_option()' (although in msvccompiler.py it
blows up with a DistutilsPlatformError right now!)

Third attempt at documenting an installation scheme; this one feels like
it could work--reasonably short and straightforward to document, but
flexible enough that it will be able to handle more than just modules
and extensions in the future.

Added a method GetMediaNextInterestingTimeOnly, which is like GetMediaNextInterestingTime without asking for the duration (which is, according to qt docs, expensive).

simplify visitor walker class

Checking in the new, improve file.writelines() code.
This (1) avoids thread unsafety whereby another thread could zap the
list while we were using it, and (2) now supports writing arbitrary
sequences of strings.

Christian Tismer's "trashcan" patch:
Added wrapping macros to dictobject.c, listobject.c, tupleobject.c,
frameobject.c, traceback.c that safely prevends core dumps
on stack overflow. Macros and functions in object.c, object.h.
The method is an "elevator destructor" that turns cascading
deletes into tail recursive behavior when some limit is hit.

with a twist: you have to define NO_STRICT_LIST_APPEND manually

Renamed 'link_static_lib() to 'create_static_lib()', and rewrote it create

There are a few places which can raise DistutilsPlatformError; make
sure it's imported! ;)
Re-wrap the docstrings on get_python_inc() and get_python_lib() to be
closer to the "normal" Python style. See GvR's "style guide" on the
essays page (http://www.python.org/doc/essays/).
There should never be a space between a function name and the '(' that
opens the argument list (see the style guide again).

Added Joe Van Andel's 'get_python_inc()', adapted by me to supply
the platform-neutral include dir by default and with Mac support.
Added 'get_python_lib()', inspired by 'get_python_inc()'.
Rewrote 'get_config_h_filename()' and 'get_makefile_filename()'
in terms of 'get_python_inc()' and 'get_python_lib()'.
Changed '_init_nt()' and '_init_mac()' to use 'get_python_inc()' and
'get_python_lib()' for directory names.

A bunch of changes, primarily to command line argument parsing
(inspired by Detlef Lannert). Specifically,
-k/--keyword no longer takes an optional argument to clear the
default keywords. Instead, use -K/--no-default-keywords to clear
them.
-n/--add-location also no longer takes an optional argument to set
the comment style. Instead, use -S/--style to set the comment
style to GNU or Solaris.
-o/--output can take `-' as the filename, meaning write to
standard output.
The inputfile name can also be `-' meaning read from standard in.
A few other changes include
Kludge to mark the file docstring as translatable. Since the
marking is to place _() around the docstring, and because we
actually have to define the _() function before we use it, this
means that we have to manually assign to __doc__ the output of
_(). This doesn't seem too bad because you'll only use this idiom
when translating a script's docstring (you really don't need to
translate most module docstrings).
Convert everything to string methods and do not import the string
module.
Override the Undo delegator to forbid any changes before the I/O mark.
It beeps if you try to insert or delete before the "iomark" mark.
This makes the shell less confusing for newbies.
Tweak the goto file/line command (in the right button menu in PyShell
and output windows) so that it if it doesn't succeed with the line
at the cursor, it tries the line before that. This is handy with
tracebacks, where my natural tendency is to click in the displayed
source line rather than in the file/line indicator just above it.
Now I can indulge this tendency.
I factored out a helper and changed the error handling so that a
non-existing file is treated as if the line didn't match -- this is
handy because some function calls (e.g. "foo.bar(1)") match the grep
pattern.
If we're in the current input and there's only whitespace beyond the
cursor, erase that whitespace first. This avoids a particularly
confusing case where hitting Return at the end of the command didn't
do what it was expected to do -- because it wasn't considered to be at
the end of the command. Now it is.
When you set a breakpoint on a function with a multi-line argument
list, the breakpoint is actually set on the second line of the
arguments instead of the first line of the body. This patch fixes
that.
