The "print statement" entry in the libref index refers the user to http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/types.html#l2h-92 The source (libstdtypes.tex): \ulink{\keyword{print} statement}{../ref/print.html} suggests that the link should be to the reference manual. Something's fishy. This was reported on comp.lang.python by peter@monicol.co.uk. His report was against the current doc, but the problem still exists in the development version. Just passing it along...

Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 The output is okay. The \ulink you state does not add the index entry, it's the \stindex one line above it. But it's questionable whether this mention of print merits an index entry. Fred?

Logged In: YES user_id=3066 I think it's reasonable. It's about the fact that print uses the str() function, so it's clearly about the print statement. This information is good to have linked from the index, I think. No need to change anything.
