Updated locally-modified sphinx.sty

[Former user]

Find attached the file updated to be up to date with the advances made in Sphinx since the last re-synch to the current 1.0.x status.

This fixes some overlapped text in a few sections of PDF version of the SA manual. Will attach a couple of screenshots later.

I'm willing to help with the alleged PDF output problems, just need to know what they are (if there is any remaining.)

(found this while preparing to print a copy of the manual.)

Original PDf output fragment, without the fix

Same fragment, with fix applied

Attached two one-page PDF files extracted from their respective full documents. Note the following differences:

• The overlapping text in the get_table_options() method description is fixed.
• Signature text of all method signatures is fixed.

PDFs files were created with Sphinx 1.0.3

Ooh, really ? the biggest problem we've had is this: http://groups.google.com/group/sphinx-dev/browse_thread/thread/e5c885371714006a . In recent builds, I've been removing the custom .sty file - the error persists with a default PDF build.

I'm going to try your .sty file right now!

[Mike Bayer]

great so I can use this file now, instead of not using a .sty file at all, that's 2fffc4072f783f10d534af9fd627fdb62a6dda0c . The "too deeply nested" issue persists when doing a make all-pdf.

[Former user]

Oh sorry, I forgot about the latex execution pause when creating the pdf file because of that deeply nested. I guess I got accustomed to press 'r<Enter>' :).

I wanted to note I only ported the modifications you had in the file to the new upstream contents:

From the thread you posted it seems these changes are, coincidentally, related to the same issue. Will keep working on this.
