paul j3 added the comment: It's essentially the same issue as http://bugs.python.org/issue21666.
An error in the 'help' parameter is not caught until 'print_help' is called (via 'parse_args'). A possible improvement is to test the 'help' string during 'add_argument'. Similar testing for 'nargs' and 'metavar' has been proposed. ---------- nosy: +paul.j3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21747> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
