I'm pleased to announce the next minor version of Sphinx, the Python documentation generation tool.
What is it? =========== Sphinx is a tool that makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful documentation for Python projects (or other documents consisting of multiple reStructuredText source files). Its website is at <http://sphinx.pocoo.org/>. Partial list of changes ======================= (full list at http://sphinx.pocoo.org/changes.html) * The ``toctree`` directive now supports a ``glob`` option that allows glob-style entries in the content. * A new config value, `exclude_dirs`, can be used to exclude whole directories from the search for source files. * The configuration directory (containing ``conf.py``) can now be set independently from the source directory. For that, a new command-line option ``-c`` has been added. * A new directive ``tabularcolumns`` can be used to give a tabular column specification for LaTeX output. Tables now use the ``tabulary`` package. Table output is now much better, even with default settings. Literal blocks can now be placed in tables, with several caveats. * A new config value, `latex_use_parts`, can be used to enable parts in LaTeX documents. * Autodoc now skips inherited members for classes, unless you give the new ``inherited-members`` option. * A new config value, `autoclass_content`, selects if the docstring of the class' ``__init__`` method is added to the directive's body. * sphinx.ext.autodoc: descriptors are detected properly now. * sphinx.latexwriter: implement all reST admonitions, not just ``note`` and ``warning``. * Lots of little fixes to the LaTeX output and style.
