Chris Jerdonek added the comment: Yes, the documentation for str.casefold() suggests that lower() is not meant to casefold:
"For example, the German lowercase letter 'ß' is equivalent to "ss". Since it is already lowercase, lower() would do nothing to 'ß'; casefold() converts it to "ss"." http://docs.python.org/dev/library/stdtypes.html#str.casefold ---------- nosy: +cjerdonek _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15562> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
