Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: Ouch! Do the rejected characters qualify as identifier characters as defined in Reference 2.3 Identifiers and keywords? http://docs.python.org/py3k/reference/lexical_analysis.html#identifiers If some interpreter version accepts extra characters, beyond the definition (as happened in 2.x), it is not a bug for for another version to only accept what is defined.
Side question: That section has "A non-normative HTML file listing all valid identifier characters for Unicode 4.1 can be found at http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/home/loewis/table-3131.html." Is the set of identifier characters now larger, and if so, has the table been enlarged? ---------- nosy: +haypo, lemburg, loewis, terry.reedy stage: -> needs patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12732> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
