Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment: stdin is mentioned in the documentation of the -u option only due to weird internal buffering in Python 2, because user can expect that -u disables it. It is documented what methods use internal buffering and how get rid of it. No other buffering is mentioned.
This no longer actual in Python 3. I think there is no need to mention stdin in the context of the -u option at all. -u doesn't affect stdin buffering, whatever that would mean. Period. Alternatively you can include a lecture about different kinds of buffering and how -u doesn't affect them. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue28647> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
