New submission from Brodie Rao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The %default option help string feature doesn't exist in Python 2.3, but the documentation for Python 2.4 and 2.5 don't mention that it was added in 2.4. It should mention this so people developing for 2.3 and 2.4/2.5 can be aware of this.
http://docs.python.org/lib/optparse-generating-help.html is the page describing the %default feature. I would imagine the bullet point about the feature being prefixed with "New in 2.4: ..." ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 64450 nosy: brodierao, georg.brandl severity: normal status: open title: optparse docs should mention %default being new in 2.4 type: feature request versions: Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2476> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
