Martin Panter added the comment: Nicholas, there is Issue 8706 about converting functions and methods to accept keywords in general.
There is also the slash “/” indicator proposed by PEP 457, which is used for some functions in pydoc; bytes.replace() for instance. In Issue 23738 I was trying to get some consensus on using this slash notation in the main documentation, in which case bytes.translate() could look like bytes.translate(table, delete=b"", /) And there is Issue 21314 about where to document the slash notation that is already used in pydoc. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter superseder: -> accept keyword arguments on most base type methods and builtins _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26334> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
