Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: Actually, in Python 2.x, string.letters *does* contain the letters based on the locale. Just make sure to call locale.setlocale. -- nosy: +loewis ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org

2010-07-22 Thread Anthony Long
New submission from Anthony Long antl...@gmail.com: string.letters should display the locale based equivalent of a-Z. In enUS this would be a-z A-Z, in total a len of 52, whereas in spain it would be a-z (with ñ), and A-Z (Ñ). Each locale should change the returned letters.
