This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
to fix the grammar.
* Set but unused variable in Parser/pgen.c in non-debug builds. Patch by
Christian Heimes.
* Unused static function in Modules/readline.c. Patch by Georg Brandl.
* main_window unused in Modules/tkappinit.c. Patch by Gregory P. Smith.
* Dead assignment in Modules/_ctypes/cfield.c. Extracted from patch by Brett
Cannon.
* Expression result unused in PyObject_INIT macro expansions. Based on
patches by Christian Heimes.
* Load expat_config.h and therefore pyconfig.h before C stdlib headers are
loaded. This silences pre-processor warnings including '_POSIX_C_SOURCE
redefined'. Extracted from patch by Christian Heimes.
* Group functions into six new subsections
* Document the underlying Readline function or variable accessed
* get_history_length() returns the history file limit
* clear_history() is conditionally compiled in
* Clarify zero and one bases for history item indexes
* parse_and_bind() uses its argument directly as an init line
* Change "command line" to "line buffer" for consistency
* read_init_file() also executes the file
* read_history_file() replaces the previous history
* write_history_file() overwrites any existing file
* Differentiate history file lines from history list items, which could be
multi-line
* Add more information about completion, also addressing Issue #10796
* libedit (Editline) may be used on any platform; detection is OS X specific
terminal to not write the ANSI sequence "\033[1034h" into stdout. This sequence
is used on some terminal (ex: TERM=xterm-256color") to enable support of 8 bit
characters.
