R. David Murray added the comment: The message is correct. The default value of foo is True. It would be just as misleading to say default: False, since that would imply the default value of foo was false. It also makes no sense to think it would mean the default value of 'no-foo' is False.
Instead, if you want to use ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter instead of controlling when defaults are displayed, change your help string to read something like: "Set foo to False". ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27153> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
