New submission from Neil Godber <njgod...@gmail.com>:
'%' character in help= for argparse causes ValueError: incomplete format. I am attempting to use the percentage character in my help string but get the above error. Presumably argparse assumes % denotes formatting when this is not the case. I have tried f-strings, escape and raw strings, none of which rectify the issue. The only solution is that dev's cannot use % character in argpase help strings which is something of an oddity. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 373578 nosy: Neil Godber priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: '%' character in help= for argparse causes ValueError: incomplete format type: behavior versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41289> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
