New submission from Jan Kaliszewski <z...@chopin.edu.pl>: The problem can be found in many places in docs -- tipically, where there is a function/method with name identical to builtin name (or sometimes to another function/method within the same module -- see: #6575): links leads to te latter but should lead to the former.
One example -- open(): http://docs.python.org/library/shelve.html? highlight=open#shelve.DbfilenameShelf http://docs.python.org/library/shelve.html?highlight=open#example http://docs.python.org/library/sunau.html?highlight=open#sunau.openfp http://docs.python.org/library/sunau.html?highlight=open#au-read-objects http://docs.python.org/library/sunau.html?highlight=open#au-write- objects http://docs.python.org/library/wave.html?highlight=open#wave.openfp http://docs.python.org/library/wave.html?highlight=open#wave-read- objects http://docs.python.org/library/wave.html?highlight=open#wave-write- objects http://docs.python.org/library/io.html?highlight=open#module-interface http://docs.python.org/library/io.html?highlight=open#io.open http://docs.python.org/library/io.html?highlight=open#io.IOBase.readline It's hard to find all such place by hand; probably it's a job for a script... ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 90943 nosy: georg.brandl, zuo severity: normal status: open title: Links wrongly targeting to builtin functions' instead of module functions/methods versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.0, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6577> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
