I had initially considered doing something that, but I decided not to for reasons that I can't quite remember. However, in hindsight it seems like it would have been a better approach than doing everything in C. I'll start on it ASAP.

How would I go about doing this? Would it be sufficient to raise a DeprecationWarning if the argument is provided by the caller, and add a note to the docstring and documentation? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
