http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xattr has a list. The question what’s most user friendly. The best way for the user would be your text. However we’ll have to dig through the docs once we support xattr on more platforms. However as I see it, we’re deep down this path already anyway (http://docs.python.org/dev/library/os.html?highlight=xattr#linux-extended-attributes), so I guess we can keep your docs. One nit: I’d swap your quoted "extended attributes" to unquoted but linked to the doc above. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15238> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
