- fixed some incomprehensible wording ("event assigned to..."?)
- removed undocumented and unnecessary process properties from example
- corrected the docs on the default for the exec setting
- described when workers are removed from cluster.workers
- described addressType, which was documented as existing, but not what
values it might have
- spell out more clearly the limitations of setupMaster
- describe disconnect in sufficient detail that why a child does or does
not exit can be understood
- clarify which cluster functions and events are available on process or
just on the worker, as well as which are not available in children,
- don't describe events as the same, when they have receive different
arguments
- fix misleading disconnect example: since disconnect already calls
close on all servers, doing it again in the example is a no-op, not
the "force close" it was claimed to be
- document the error event, not catching it will kill your node
- describe suicide better, it is important, and a bit unintuitive
(process.exit() is not suicide?)
- use worker consistently throughout, instead of child.
- Make explicit that .disconnected is set before the disconnect event,
and it is not allowed to send messages after calling .disconnect(),
even while waiting for a delayed disconect event.
- Remove obsolete claim that explicit exit is required
- Describe silent: in the options for fork()
- Describe .connected as the property it is, not just as an aside in
the disconnect() method
Add a short explanation of what the load average is and why it's
unavailable on Windows.
Also sneak in a fix for a typo that I introduced in commit 56c5806.
* Extend examples to show how to handle non-constructor invocation in
constructor callback functions.
* Fix up examples to initialize member variables at object construction.
* Fix up a few naming inconsistencies.
Fixes#5701.
Flags and modes aren't the same, symlinks are followed in all of the
path but the last component, docs should say something about what the
mode argument is for and when its used, fs.openSync should point to the
function that contains the docs for its args, as fs.writeSync does.
The Streams API doc is now broken up into 3 sections:
1. API for Consumers
2. API for Implementors
3. Details and Extras
This addresses one of the biggest points of confusion for new users who
start to consume streams, and get the impression that they have to do
lots of extra work and implement classes and such, just to get some data
out of a file.
The console module has always been called 'stdio' in the
table-of-contents, but nowhere else, since its name is
'console'. This makes it difficult to find.
This is a back-port of commit 226a20d from the master branch.
This reverts commit a40133d10c.
Unfortunately, this breaks socket.io. Even though it's not strictly an
API change, it is too subtle and in too brittle an area of node, to be
done in a stable branch.

If there is an encoding, and we do 'stream.push(chunk, enc)', and the
encoding argument matches the stated encoding, then we're converting from
a string, to a buffer, and then back to a string. Of course, this is a
completely pointless bit of work, so it's best to avoid it when we know
that we can do so safely.
