R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: It does look like there's anomalous behavior here of some sort, but I'd expect --test=-- to result in test="--", myself, rather than an error. My intuition is that '--' would need to be preceded by a space to function as the 'end of options' marker. Because of that, I've never tried the above scenario with a unix command, so maybe my intuition is wrong :)
Just for reference (the code paths may be different), there is another open issue about -- parsing, issue 13922. ---------- components: +Library (Lib) nosy: +bethard, r.david.murray stage: -> needs patch versions: +Python 3.2, Python 3.3 -Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14364> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
