Xiang Zhang added the comment: Looks like perl has already encoded in this way:
[~]$ perl -e 'print pack("u","Ca\x00t")' $0V$`=``` > Oddly, the uu.decode function does properly decode files encoded using "`", > but encode is unable to create them. The decoder source code explicitly states it could resolve backtick since some encoders use '`' instead of space. To maintain backwards compatibility, I think we can add a keyword-only backtick parameter to binascii.b2a_uu and uuencode. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka, xiang.zhang _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30103> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
