fix various descriptions of "ctime"

(closes SF patch #870287)

Avoid using 'dir' as a variable name and use os.path.join() to create

2003-06-19T18:10:37+00:00

paths.

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no

2001-11-28T07:26:15+00:00

parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group.  These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Fixed minor markup nits for consistency with the rest of the library

reference.

SourceForge patch #103140, checked in at fdrake's invitation. Minor fixes and

2001-01-10T19:34:52+00:00

additions to library docs.#

Change the directory tree walking example to use clearer variable

1999-08-03T21:52:29+00:00

names, some suggested by Joe Ellsworth.

Patch from Greg Ward adding descriptions of S_IMODE() and S_IFMT(),

1999-04-23T20:54:57+00:00

and an explanation of why any of stat.S_*() would be used instead of
os.path.is*().  (With some really small enhancements by me.)

Remove \platform declaration; this module is generic.

Don't refer to the system documentation as "man pages"; too

1999-04-22T14:55:43+00:00

Unix-centric.  Note that this can be used with the output of
os.fstat() as well as os.stat() and os.lstat().
