- based on pip and other PyPA tools
- includes references to the new Python Packaging User Guide
where appropriate (and the relevant section is at least
partially filled in)
- started new FAQ sections
- both guides aim to introduce users to basic open source
concepts if they aren't aware of them
- existing guides have been relocated (now linked from the
distutils docs) rather then removed, since there is
some needed material that has yet to be relocated to the
distutils docs as a reference for the legacy formats
Add also a PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG environment variable to debug coroutines since
Python startup, to be able to debug coroutines defined directly in the asyncio
module.
Includes:
-mention cx_Freeze instead of py2exe (at least until py2exe supports Python 3)
-update ActivePython link
-Remove mention of platforms that were never supported by Python 3 (Win9x, DOS)
Also added versionadded for for fish/csh, fixed indentation of versionadded
for ElementTree.write, and make the behavior of shelf as a context manager
explicit in the docs.
-I
Run Python in isolated mode. This also implies -E and -s. In isolated mode
sys.path contains neither the script’s directory nor the user’s
site-packages directory. All PYTHON* environment variables are ignored,
too. Further restrictions may be imposed to prevent the user from
injecting malicious code.
