Consider the following session: Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 16:22:56) [GCC 4.4.5] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import re >>> p = re.compile("foo") >>> re.sub(p, "bar", "foobaz", flags=re.IGNORECASE) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: sub() got an unexpected keyword argument 'flags'
The flags should really be passed to re.compile() instead. However, the documentation indicates that they can be passed to re.sub() as well. Is this a bug, or am I reading things wrong? http://docs.python.org/library/re.html#re.sub TIA! \t -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
