Class mailbox.MMDF supports the MMDF-mail-spool file format. This is a file
with zero or more records, each starts and ends with a line of four ASCII SOHs.
Within those two lines is an email in RFC 5532 format, i.e. a headers section

This most certainly is a bug under Unix and an annoying one. "Since the
issue is with platform's stdio library" is wrong; stdio is being used
incorrectly. It would be nice to see it fixed in the 2.x line.
I've two test programs.

Examining the source of Ubuntu's python2.6 2.6.6-5ubuntu1 package
suggests beyond the limits of the string is considered \W, like Perl.
Modules/_sre.c:
336 LOCAL(int)
337 SRE_AT(SRE_STATE* state, SRE_CHAR* ptr, SRE_CODE at)
New submission from Ralph Corderoy :
The re module defines \b in a regexp to need \w one side and \W the other.
What about when the end of the string or line is involved? perlre(1) says
that's treated as a \W. Python should precisely document that case too.

floats now have an is_integer() method. I think it was added in 2.6 around the
same time as as_integer_ratio(). It has a docstring but it isn't mentioned in
the documentation. I only idled across it when reading the C source. I'd
expect to fi

fileLineIter() is not a solution that allows this bug to be closed, no.
readline() needs modifying and if that means python-dev discussion then
that's what it needs. Things to consider include changing the record
separator as the file is read.

Google has led me here because I'm trying to see how to process find(1)'s

trivial.

A friend wrote "exit(0)" in a script without an import of sys. I

Does that mean it's policy not to correct documentation for non-latest
versions? Fair enough. But perhaps
http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/lib/about.html should be changed to
reflect that, and likewise on other non-latest versions, e.g. "If the

Regarding compressing the opcode table to make better use of cache;
what if the most frequently occurring opcodes where placed together,
e.g. the opcodes were ordered by frequency, most frequent first. Just
based on a one-off static analysis of a body of code

A new target, "check", has been added to Makefile for 2.6. It runs some
tests on the source code that are intended to check there's nothing
