Ezio Melotti added the comment: Only on 3.4. Python prints the version on stdout since 3.4 -- before it used stderr: 3.3$ ./python -V 2> /dev/null 3.3$ ./python -V > /dev/null Python 3.3.2+
3.4$ ./python -V 2> /dev/null Python 3.4.0a1+ 3.4$ ./python -V > /dev/null This might also explain why argparse uses stderr (other modules/scripts in the stdlib might do the same too). ---------- keywords: +easy nosy: +ezio.melotti stage: -> needs patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18920> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
