Ezio Melotti added the comment: The idea is that the output of pprint should be something like (once #17530 is applied): >>> pprint.pprint(b'\x7fELF\x01\x01\x01\x00\x00\n\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x01') (b'\x7fELF\x01\x01\x01\x00\x00\n\x00\x00' b'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x01')
whereas the output of hexdump can be something like: pprint.hexdump(b'\x7fELF\x01\x01\x01\x00\x00\n\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x01') 7F 45 4C 46 01 01 01 00 00 0A 00 00 00 00 00 00 | .ELF............ 02 00 03 00 01 | ..... hexdump() could accept some additional args too if required, but otherwise I don't think the details are so important as long as it produces something readable for a human. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17868> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
