Florent Xicluna <florent.xicl...@gmail.com> added the comment: I don't see a valid use case to support "-" in the name of the positional argument.
IMHO, it should raise an error (probably a ValueError) for the add_argument in this case ... Or we keep it as-is and close as wont-fix: if the op wants to pass "foo-bar" for the name of the positional argument ... it is his problem. He can retrieve the value if he really want, with something like: getattr(args, 'foo-bar') In this case a single note in the documentation about using valid Python identifier for the names could be enough. ---------- nosy: +flox _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15125> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
