You may have run Python 3.3 with a slightly different script, one where you forgot a trailing comma: >>> argv = ["foo"] >>> argv[1:] = ("bar",) # with comma >>> print("-".join(argv[1:])) bar >>> argv = ["foo"] >>> argv[1:] = ("bar") # without comma >>> print("-".join(argv[1:])) b-a-r -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
