New submission from Adam Bartoš:
Consider the following code:
>>> 1, 2
File "<stdin>", line 1
1, 2
^
SyntaxError: invalid character in identifier
The error is due to the fact, that the space before "2" is actually a
non-breaking space. The error message and the position of the caret is
misleading.
The tokenize module gives an ERRORTOKEN at the position of the space, so
shouldn't the massage be more like "invalid syntax" with the correct position
or even something more appropriate?
