New submission from samwyse <samw...@gmail.com>:
The doc string for url encode states:
The query arg may be either a string or a bytes type. When query arg is a
string, the safe, encoding and error parameters are sent to the quote_via
function for encoding
IMHO, this implies that the argument can be a string. Note that the preceding
paragraphs starts out with "If the query arg is a sequence of two-element
tuples". I think that it should read:
The components of the query arg may be either a string or a bytes
type. When query arg is a string, the safe, encoding and error
parameters are sent to the quote_via function for encoding.
