R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: You are correct, it wasn't an argument. I've never seen numbered alternatives anywhere *except* the svn merge help (which I've never looked at before, since I/we don't use it for python development). And I don't like them. (svn merge uses them to cross reference the explanatory comments that follow, but I still don't like them and I think the svnmerge help would read better without them.)
I see your point about the alternate form, though you could still use -m by making sure your modified Lib dir was in PYTHONPATH, or run it with the Lib dir as the CWD. Without doing that I don't think you'd be testing your modified Lib directory anyway (though you would be running the modified test files). I'm not sure about that, though, I haven't run enough experiments :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8325> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
