New submission from ekorn <[email protected]>:
It seems shlex fails on processing strings ending in space, causing this bug
that I reported for IPython:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/1109
Fernando Perez made a minimal example of the problem, quoted below. As he
points out, it would be best to fix this at the source, namely the shlex module.
Python 2.7.2 |EPD 7.1-1 (32-bit)| (default, Jul 3 2011, 15:13:59) [MSC v.1500
32 bit (Intel)] on win32
>>> import shlex
>>> lex = shlex.shlex(' ("a ")', posix=False)
>>> lex.whitespace_split = True
>>> list(lex)
Traceback (most recent call last):
