I am with Steven on this one. Note that these functions are expected to be used interactively and with standard US keyboards "." is much easier to type than "_". My only objection is to having a class xyz such that isinstance(xyz(..), xyz) is false. While this works with CPython, it may present problems for other implementations. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18606> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
