Martin Dengler added the comment: Anecdotal ( http://stackoverflow.com/a/12675195/2747741 ) evidence suggests other programs do indeed accept spaces, and a cursory browsing of the Perl source code ( http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/blob/HEAD:/cpan/libnet/lib/Net/Netrc.pm#l120 ) indicates Perl at least supports (escaped) spaces in .netrc passwords.
Is there anything that I could do to make the patch I provided acceptable? If not, could the bug be reopened as 1) the bug description mentions a valid use case that is not handled by the netrc module; and 2) there is precedent for this use case's implementation in other software. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue557704> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
