New submission from Hirokazu Yamamoto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I often do same mistake again and again. Most of re module's method takes optional argument "flags" like this.
finditer( pattern, string[, flags]) But, sub() takes optional argument "count" not "flags". sub( pattern, repl, string[, count]) So, when I write this code, it doesn't behave like what I want. re.sub("<[^>]+>", "", content, re.S) I think it would be nice if the method which takes optional argument "flags" and do same behavior with re.compile(pattern[, flags]).sub(repl, string). Thank you. ---------- components: Regular Expressions messages: 69087 nosy: ocean-city severity: normal status: open title: [proposal] alternative for re.sub type: feature request _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3255> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
