New submission from Michael Newman <michael.b.new...@gmail.com>:
Attached is a version checking script. When you run it normally, it produces
output such as:
E:\notes\Programming\python3>c:\Python26\python.exe version_check.py
2.6.4 (r264:75708, Oct 26 2009, 08:23:19) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]
E:\notes\Programming\python3>c:\Python31\python.exe version_check.py
3.1.1 (r311:74483, Aug 17 2009, 17:02:12) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]
I wanted to test using "-m pdb" on this script. It works okay for Python 2.6:
E:\notes\Programming\python3>c:\Python26\python.exe -m pdb version_check.py
> e:\notes\programming\python3\version_check.py(4)<module>()

(Pdb) c
2.6.4 (r264:75708, Oct 26 2009, 08:23:19) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]
The program finished and will be restarted
> e:\notes\programming\python3\version_check.py(4)<module>()
-> Last Updated: 2008-12-21"""
(Pdb) q
However, if I try it on Python 3.1 I get a SyntaxError:
# --- Begin Python 3.1 Example with "\r\n" source code --- #
E:\notes\Programming\python3>c:\Python31\python.exe -m pdb version_check.py

# --- End Python 3.1 Example with "\r\n" source code --- #
As a hunch, my program is has Windows style line endings "\r\n", so I saved the
file to another file name and converted it to Unix style "\n" line endings...
and this version does work:
# --- Begin Python 3.1 Example using "\n" source code --- #
E:\notes\Programming\python3>copy version_check.py version_check_unix.py
1 file(s) copied.
E:\notes\Programming\python3>which d2u
C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin\d2u.EXE
E:\notes\Programming\python3>d2u version_check_unix.py
version_check_unix.py: done.

Is "\r\n" not officially supported by "-m pdb"? Or is this a bug?
