Bug: Doesn't work as documented. Feature: Works as expected but not documented[1] to do so. Miracle: Works as documented.[2] Unspecified behavior that doesn't work as you expect is the unmarked case (ie, none of the above). The Devil's Dictionary defines feature somewhat differently: Feature: Name for any behavior you don't feel like justifying to a user. Footnotes: [1] Including cases where the patch contains documentation but hasn't been committed to trunk yet. [2] Python is pretty miraculous, isn't it? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
