Right. However, that's not how scripts are usually invoked on Unix.
Using /usr/bin/env in the command line is supposed to fix that but of
course it

do this), but that's not what this pattern is about, AFAICS.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to the use of @ in python to denote a

Or in this case, since each function is specific to one instance, you

in general no suitable
human readable string representation of a whole email. You have to go
through it part by part and decide what you want to do with each. For
example, if you have a multipart/alternative with a text/plain and a
text/html part what should the "string representation" be?
achine-readable information like addresses or message ids.

One could argue that it should say 'unrecognized escape sequence'

that's nitpicking.
