New submission from helmsman helmsman <whalebot.helms...@gmail.com>:
Sometimes you want to provide format description in help message for argparse.add_argument, e.g. for comma-separated key/value set "--flag key1=value1,key2=value2". At this moment there is no format specifier for flag or name of arguments. I propose add new %(flag)s specifier for help strings, see example.py ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: example.py messages: 325788 nosy: helmsman helmsman priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: New %(flag)s format specifier for argparse.add_argument help string type: enhancement Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file47815/example.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34744> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
