The usage formatting is fragile, with many associated bug reports. Until someone does a major rewrite, it is best to avoid special characters, especially `()` and `[]` in the `dest` or `metavar`. Usage uses () to encolde mutually_exclusive_groups and [] to mark non-required arguments. Don't confuse your users (or argparse) with other uses of these characters. ---------- nosy: +paul.j3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45580> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
