If you mean backslash-escaped sequences like \uXXXX, there is no reason to ban them in comments. Unlike to Java they do not have special meaning outside of string literals. But if you mean terminal control sequences (which change color or move cursor) they should not be allowed in comments. > At the time, we considered it, and we also considered a narrower restriction > on using multiple scripts in the same identifier, or at least the same > identifier portion (so it was OK if separated by _). I implemented this restrictions in one of my projects. The character set was limited, and even this did not solve all issues with homoglyphs. I think that we should not introduce such arbitrary limitations at the parser level and left it to linters. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/2TT3VX4D4FMRSEOV4O2ICYTC7VC5M2J4/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
