Guido van Rossum 34d1928766 SF patch# 1770008 by Christian Heimes (plus some extras). Completely get rid of StringIO.py and cStringIO.c. I had to fix a few tests and modules beyond what Christian did, and invent a few conventions. E.g. in elementtree, I chose to write/return Unicode strings whe no encoding is given, but bytes when an explicit encoding is given. Also mimetools was made to always assume binary files.		2007-08-09 01:03:29 +00:00

Webchecker
----------

This is a simple web tree checker, useful to find bad links in a web
tree.  It currently checks links pointing within the same subweb for
validity.  The main program is "webchecker.py".  See its doc string
(or invoke it with the option "-?") for more defails.

History:

- Jan 1997.  First release.  The module robotparser.py was written by
Skip Montanaro; the rest is original work by Guido van Rossum.

- May 1999.  Sam Bayer contributed a new version, wcnew.py, which
supports checking internal links (#spam fragments in URLs) and some
other options.

- Nov 1999.  Sam Bayer contributed patches to reintegrate wcnew.py
into webchecker.py, and corresponding mods to wcgui.py and
websucker.py.

- Mar 2004.  Chris Herborth contributed a patch to let webchecker.py
handle XHTML's 'id' attribute.
