The goal is to match posix shell semantics. Can you provide a concrete example where shlex.shlex does something different from a posix-compliant shell? With all the escaping, it's going to be tough. Note also that your code raises a DeprecationWarning in 3.7, at least, and will be an error in the future. You should probably use r-strings in your examples. ---------- nosy: +eric.smith _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36897> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
