New submission from strjan <str....@seznam.cz>:
When positional argument with action='extend' is given to parse only one string argument, the string is splitted into individual characters. The problem occures, when no "nargs" is given; it makes sense that nargs is requiered, though at least notion in documentation would be nice, as the issue does not occure with action='append' Minimal example included. ---------- files: argparse_bug.py messages: 367033 nosy: strjan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: argparse: action "extend" with 1 parameter splits strings into characters type: behavior versions: Python 3.8, Python 3.9 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file49086/argparse_bug.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40365> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
