One possibility is to restrict the warning to a backslash followed by an alphabetic character or backslash, and that we define backslash followed by any other printable character as specifically allowed. This would catch the likely sources of errors without breaking the likes of \, or \-. Also, multiline strings have less of a need for a warning than a single line string. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32912> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
