I could easily argue at this point that this is the type of bug that having %-formatting operations on bytes would encourage - %s means "format a string" (from years of C and Python (text) experience) so I automatically supply a string argument when using %s in a bytes formatting context.
So don't call it %s -- call it something else such as %b. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
