I agree with Eric. Limiting field width when formatting error messages is a good safety measure. It is not only the amount of garbage that can be spitted in error logs, if garbage is not null-terminated, you may get a SEGV instead of a somewhat meaningful error message. ---------- nosy: +belopolsky _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10833> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
