New submission from Skip Montanaro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Georg,
I just noticed that there are asterisks in a couple places in the subprocess
module documentation which don't appear to have corresponding footnotes.
All the way at the bottom are subsections called
Replacing os.spawn*
Replacing os.popen*
I don't know what the '*' is supposed to mean, but in normal usage it would
tell the user there is a footnote which elaborates on something related to
that text. I don't see any such footnotes. Oh, wait a minute. You
probably mean for them to be wildcards. Hmmm... Probably not the best
usage. Can you find a different way to indicate that those examples refer
to a larger category of functions?
Skip
