Steve Dower added the comment: Not sure how I missed it originally, but that extra 1 char is actually very important:
Python 3.6.0b2 (v3.6.0b2:b9fadc7d1c3f, Oct 10 2016, 20:36:51) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import sys >>> sys.ps1='> ' > sys The extra space is because of that. Really ought to fix this before the next beta. ---------- assignee: -> steve.dower nosy: +ned.deily _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28333> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
