It looks to me that rejecting the null character is just an implementation artifact. 0 is used both as signalling value for "not set" character parameter and as the end-of-line character in the state automata. We can use different values outside of the range of Unicode characters (0-0x10ffff). It will automatically enable support of null characters. ---------- versions: +Python 3.11 -Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27580> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
