Tom Lynn <tl...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
Actually, looking at the second part of the docs for $ (on "foo.$") makes me
think the main motivating case here may be a bug in re.match::
>>> re.match('foo$', 'foo\n\n')
>>> re.match('foo$', 'foo\n')
<_sre.SRE_Match object at 0x00A98678>
Shortening an input string shouldn't ever cause it to match, should it?
