Terry, your suggested replacement statement looks like an improvement to me. Perhaps the longer explanation could be placed in a footnote. Note that I'm old ;-) I grew up on plain old ASCII, decades & decades ago, and tabs are in fact the only "characters" I've had a problem with in doctests. But then, e.g., I never in my life used goofy things like ASCII "form feed" characters, or NUL bytes, or ... in text either. I don't use Unicode either, except to the extent that Python forces me to when I'm sticking printable ASCII characters inside string quotes ;-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43689> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
