Well, the docs say that %x does unsigned conversion, so they've been relying on an implementation quirk as well ;) Would it be practical to add new conversion syntax to string interpolation? Like, for example, %p as an unsigned hex number the same size as (void *). Otherwise, unless I misunderstand integer unification, one would just have to strike the distinction between, say, %d and %u. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
