That is not guaranteed for any particular piece of Python code in the standard library. In particular it is not amenable to test automation, so it is certainly not a requirement that tests pass in this mode. (What is the *use case* for running a command line argument parser in interactive mode?) I'm certainly not opposed to fixing tests so that they do pass when run like this, but I disagree that it is a "bug". ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11906> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
