STINNER Victor added the comment: I like the idea. It's common in protocols to have different kinds of "terminators" to mark the end of a message. C strings use a null byte for example. I would be trivial to accept other terminators, since we don't store received bytes as lines, but as a raw byte string (technically in a bytearray).
> if not isinstance(separator, bytes) or len(separator) != 1: Yes, we should only reject empty terminator string. But terminator strings of more than 1 character are fine, no? I don't think that we need to put an arbitrary limitation here. > Since I cannot create pull-request, I will write just here what I want: Oh, what is your problem?
