Pekka Klärck <pekka.kla...@gmail.com> added the comment: Thanks for pointing out `ascii()`. Seems to do exactly what I want.
`repr()` showing combining characters would, in my opinion, still be useful to avoid problems like I demonstrated with unittest and pytest. I doubt it's a good idea with them to use `ascii()` instead of `repr()` by default because on Python 3 the latter generally works much better with non-ASCII text. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33317> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
