Is this just because of the mishandling of the Other_ID_Start and Other_ID_Continue properties, or something else as well? I based my code on the definitions in: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#identifiers Are those actually wrong? Note that my code uses category(normalize(char)[0]), so it's always making sure that the first character is valid. Actually, though, I now realize that it should check all of the values returned by normalize(). Regarding testing ('a'+something).isidentifier(), Terry already suggested something along those lines. I think I'll end up using something of the sort, to avoid adding additional complex Unicode-related code to maintain in the future. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21765> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
