Julien Palard <julien+pyt...@palard.fr> added the comment: Hi Stéphane thanks for the proposal and the PR.
But are those options usefull in real life? (I may be biased as a Linux user). I see this gzip CLI usefull to decompress a gzip file on platforms not having a gzip program installed, but I don't think it's usefull to compress. (Yet I'm OK with the current status-quo: If we allow to decompress, let's allow to compress, for consistency). But why drifting from "let's allow to compress just for consistency" to "let's replace the gzip command"? I mean, except is it's usefull in some cases that I don't see. Also so does it mean we'll have to add the 16 other gzip options at the end? ---------- stage: -> patch review _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34969> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
