In case it's not clear, I think the implementation in the patch is "good enough" (unless someone can suggest any obvious optimisations). If someone can prove that re.escape() performance is causing problems for other modules in the standard lib (email, ctypes, warnings, fnmatch, _strptime use it, among others), then we might consider a C implementation. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3756> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
