It's probably not worth disturbing the current library interface for, but maybe in Py3k? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-05-01 17:42 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO Moving to the feature requests tracker. Notice that in Py3k, the string type will be a Unicode type, so it's not clear to me that regular expressions on binary data will still be supported. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1708652&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
