Consider where the 4-space tabstops are relative to those strings:
test test
testtest
^ ^ ^
So no, it's not a bug.
If you just want to replace the tab characters by spaces, use:
>>> " test\ttest&quo
dies. An automated way
to snap a picture of the PDFs would be ideal, but I'd settle for a way to
skip over them without crashing my program.
Any tips?

If you're trying to return multiple values from a function, Python lets
you do that
>>> def multiFoo(x, y, z):
... return x*2, y*2, z*2
...
>>> x = 1
>>> y = 2
>>> z = 3
>>> x, y, z = multiFoo(x, y, z)
>>> x
2
>>> y
4
>>> z

much better to either use string formatting or the idiom of using the
join method of list objects to create a string in a single pop once a
list of substrings is all populated.

That depends on whether you're only looking for who

unquote_plus(string)
Like unquote(), but also replaces plus signs by spaces, as required
for unquoting HTML form values.

Hi folks,
Although the PyQt documentation indicates that QGLWidget & friends have
been ported to Python for the PyQt bindings, I'm not entirely sure what's
necessary to make the normal OpenGL/GLUT interface available.
Does PyQt work okay with PyOpenGL? Or is a more complicated workaround
needed
being consistent).
Pushing the scutwork down onto tools is not as good a solution as
eliminating the scutwork, especially when it shouldn't be necessary at
all...

Hi folks,
I'm currently trying to work out how to detect when a PyGTK window
receives the focus from the window manager -- I assume that it must
receive some kind of X event, but I can't work out which signal it
generates. Searching around the subject on the web doesn't seem to pull up
anything us
