Andy Buckley <a...@insectnation.org> added the comment: I'm easy either way --- I appreciate that it is a non-issue with new formatting, but until developers can rely on the presence of Py >= 2.6, %-formatting wil continue to be widely used.
Since optparse's special use of %-delimited tokens clashes with the established formatting in a way that could arguably do with clarification (I was blind enough to the solution to start this ticket), I think it could be useful to document it close to the description of %prog usage. Of course, since I now know the answer, *I* don't need it to be in the documentation, but it might be helpful to others ;) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5374> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
