Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org> added the comment: py.user: The format string must always match the grammar, which is just above the paragraph that you quoted:
[[fill]align][sign][#][0][width][,][.precision][type] Thus, if fill and align are absent, it does not mean that you can add arbitrary characters like "xx". I think the docs are crystal clear; I also prefer Eric's suggestion for a new error message. ---------- nosy: +skrah _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13811> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
