There's some context on the github PR but essentially it boiled down to: - It would make it inconsistent with line offsets which are 1-indexed. - Breaking change to a public C API (PyErr_SyntaxLocationObject) - IDLE and other tools that catch syntax errors rely on it being 1-indexed and this would be a breaking change for them. As a quick example of that I found this vim plugin: https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic/commit/6c91e8d802a77005d793d9cdd055c3da29f74a1b ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34683> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
