paul j3 added the comment: I can't reproduce this with either 3.4.2 or the latest development 'argparse.py' file (that I just downloaded).
There have been some issues with the method used format the usage line, _format_actions_usage. It formats the line with all the group brackets, and then tries to filter out the unnecessary ones. As such it is fragile, and messed up by extra characters. But I'm not aware of a relevant patch being applied and then latter removed. ---------- nosy: +paul.j3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23795> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
