Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Forest Wilkinson (forest) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Incorrect docs for optparse OptionParser add_help_option Initial Comment: http://www.python.org/doc/2.5/lib/optparse-creating-parser.html The docs say: "add_help_option (default: True) If true, optparse will add a help option (with option strings "-h" and "-help") to the parser." In fact, it adds option strings "-h" and "--help". Note the additional '-' character as compared to the documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1742164&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
