Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment:
I would think the use case for 'text' is to not print the output to a web page, so you wouldn't want the headers. The documentation says that cgitb was generalized to not only produce output for web pages. The 'text' format provides this generalization. Changing to an enhancement request for 3.11. We can't change the 'text' format because it would break existing code. so this is really an enhancement request for a new format. But I don't see what the use case would be, so I don't think it would be accepted. What's the case where you need this functionality? How is the 'html' format unacceptable? ---------- nosy: +eric.smith type: behavior -> enhancement versions: -Python 3.10, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45650> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
