I'm in support of separate flags for stripping docstrings and asserts. I'd even be fine with eliminating a flag to strip docstrings if we had a post-processing tool that you could apply to pyc files to strip out the docstrings. Another problem that I had while addressing these options in Debian was the use of .pyo for both -O and -OO level. -Barry _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
