I ran a few grep searches from the root of a recent hg tip: 1) grep -n -r --include=*.py --include=*.c --exclude="topics.py" -E '.+\(.*\[[[:space:]]*,.*\].*\)' . This looks for variants of "function(args [, opt])". There were 231 hits, I caught no false positives. 2) grep -n -r --include=*.py --include=*.c --exclude="topics.py" -E '.+\(.*\[.*,[[:space:]]*\].*\)' . As this pattern is valid Python syntax, I got mostly false positives, but also a few interesting cases such as "range([start,] stop[, step])" or "islice(seq, [start,] stop [, step])" I'm afraid those last examples cannot be described with valid Python syntax. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
