Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: This is more of a documentation issue than anything else. The fact that the argument is named "maxsplit" and accepts a default value doesn't mean it's usable as a keyword argument. It would be difficult to document a parameter without giving it a name anyway...
As a rule of thumb, methods accepting 2 parameters or less often don't accept any keyword arguments, since there's no point in doing so. I suggest closing this issue. ---------- assignee: -> d...@python components: +Documentation nosy: +d...@python, pitrou stage: unit test needed -> _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8626> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
