Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: Even if quote does not start with an underscore, its absence from the docs and from the module’s __all__ make it a private function.
I propose to make it public as shlex.quote in 3.3 and deprecate pipes.quote for people that relied on it (i.e. move code from pipes/test_pipes to shlex/test_shlex, add doc, write a pipes.quote function that sends a DeprecationWarning and calls shlex.quote). ---------- assignee: docs@python -> components: +Library (Lib) -Documentation nosy: -docs@python title: pipes.quote() needs to be documented -> Add shlex.quote type: -> feature request versions: +Python 3.3 -Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9723> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
