Georg Brandl added the comment: Here are the original descriptions of the old LaTeX version.
\begin{macrodesc}{versionadded}{\op{explanation}\p{version}} The version of Python which added the described feature to the library or C API. \var{explanation} should be a \emph{brief} explanation of the change consisting of a capitalized sentence fragment; a period will be appended by the formatting process. When this applies to an entire module, it should be placed at the top of the module section before any prose. \end{macrodesc} \begin{macrodesc}{versionchanged}{\op{explanation}\p{version}} The version of Python in which the named feature was changed in some way (new parameters, changed side effects, etc.). \var{explanation} should be a \emph{brief} explanation of the change consisting of a capitalized sentence fragment; a period will be appended by the formatting process. This should not generally be applied to modules. \end{macrodesc} Adding a parameter is explicitly a "versionchanged" kind of change. Since the Sphinx items are supposed to be equivalent, this has always been the intention, even if the current devguide deviates. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26366> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
