Nick Coghlan added the comment: Retitled the issue and made it depend on issue 9951.
I now think it's better to tackle this more like strftime and have a method that accepts of particular custom formatting mini-language (in this case, the new hex() methods proposed in issue 9951), and then also support that mini-language in the __format__() method. It would likely need a PEP to decide on the exact details of the formatting. ---------- dependencies: +introduce bytes.hex method title: Allow 'x' and 'X' to accept bytes-like objects in string formatting -> Define a binary output formatting mini-language for *.hex() _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22385> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
