R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Well, if it is judged a bug (and it seems to me that it is), then it can get fixed in 2.7 and 3.2 (and yes I did confirm that the same bug is present in 2.7).
It appears to be the result of startswith/endswith applying naive parsing to their arguments rather than the more sophisticated stringlib calls used by find and index. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11828> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
