About doctest-mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   "doctest-mode" is an Emacs major mode for editing text files that
   contain Python "doctest" examples.  (Doctest is a testing framework
   for Python that emulates an interactive session, and checks the
   result of each command.  For more information on doctest, see
   <http://docs.python.org/lib/module-doctest.html> ).  doctest-mode
   makes it easier to write and maintain doctest files, by providing:

     - Syntax highlighting of the prompts, source code, and expected
       output for each doctest example.

     - Editing support, including automatic indentation (similar to
       python-mode) and automatic prompt management.

     - Execution support, allowing you to run doctest directly from
       emacs, and examine the results in an output buffer.

     - Failure navigation, allowing you to quickly navigate between
       failed examples after you run doctest.

     - Output replacement, allowing you to easily update doctest
       examples with the correct output value.

Improvements in Version 0.4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   - improved syntax highlighting.
   - doctest is now run asynchronously by default.
   - added support for older versions of doctest (pre-Python 2.4)
   - editing the doctest buffer no longer causes doctest-mode to lose
     track of the correspondence between examples in the doctest buffer
     and results in the *doctest-output* buffer.
   - numerous bug-fixes.
   - new command: doctest-execute-region (C-c |).
   - improved portability between different emacs versions.  Tested on:
     * XEmacs 21.4 (patch 17) [Lucid] (i386-debian-linux, Mule)
     * GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
     * GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.3.0)
     * GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.0)
