New submission from Ben Finney: The library documentation for ‘inspect.cleandoc’ describes the transformation that occurs to “the second line onwards”, but makes no mention of what processing occurs to the synopsis (first) line.
Please update the library documentation for this function, to explicitly describe how it processes each of the different parts of a docstring. If possible, this should be guided by PEP 257's discussion of how indentation is transformed: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/#handling-docstring-indentation ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 265741 nosy: bignose, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Describe what ‘inspect.cleandoc’ does to synopsis line. type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27043> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
