R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: This was proposed on python-ideas, discussed, approved, and implemented for 2.7 and 3.1.
Note that although this wasn't discussed, the internationalization issue is answered by the fact that when internationalizing, you are rewriting the string. At that time if you need a different order of the subsitutions you can specify it, so requiring non-default numbering in the original string doesn't really buy you anything for internationalization. ---------- nosy: +bitdancer resolution: -> accepted stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1 -Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2599> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
