Thomas Wouters added the comment: Hmmm.... Well, that's fine by me, but it changes current behaviour, and in a way that ctypes own testsuite was testing, even ;) (it does, e.g., 'p[:4]' in a couple of places.) Requiring the start always would possibly break a lot of code. We could make only the start (and step) optional, and the start only if the step is positive, perhaps? That would change no existing, sane behaviour.
