Zack Weinberg added the comment: FWIW, the actual behavior of \w matching "everything in Unicode general categories L* and N*, plus U+005F (underscore)" is consistent across all versions I can conveniently test (2.7, 3.4, 3.5).
In 2.7, there are four characters in general category Nl that \w doesn't match, but I believe that is just a bug, not an intentional difference of behavior. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25743> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
