Ezio Melotti added the comment: "This doesn’t understand other non-printing characters or escape sequences."
This might also be improved. Does it mean that all characters are considered having len(c) == 1, even if they are not printable or escape sequence (and which escape sequences? \f, \v?)? Adding an example with tabsize=8 might also help, but it might not be necessary if the wording is improved as Eli suggested. ---------- nosy: +ezio.melotti type: -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17670> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
