R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Since the constants are listed in the os.chmod section of the manual, do I understand that you are suggesting that the eplanations of the meanings of the flags from the chmod man page be added to that list?
I observe that in the unix man pages the flags are documented both in the chmod(2) man page and the stat(2) man page, with somewhat different text. I'm not sure this informational redundancy is good...and I'd be inclined to put the docs in the stat module docs where the flags are actually defined. They will then be hotlinked from the flag list in os.chmod. ---------- keywords: +easy nosy: +r.david.murray priority: -> normal stage: -> needs patch type: -> feature request versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6389> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
