Can somebody explain this. The line number reported by shlex depends

Punctuation characters like the comma are not considered as word
characters by default and thus are seen as different tokens (consisting
of only a single character):
>>> lexer = shlex.shlex("foo, bar, ...")
>>> token = lexer.get_token()
>>> while token != lexer.eof:
... print token
... token = lexer.get_token()
...
foo

bar

If you want to treat them as "word" characters you need to add them to
the string "wordchars" (a public attribute of the "shlex" instance):
>>> lexer = shlex.shlex("foo.bar, baz")
>>> lexer.wordchar += '.,'
>>> print lexer.get_token()
foo.bar,
>>> print lexer.get_token()
baz
There is also a "debug" attribute (with three different levels: 1, 2, 3;
default value 0 means no debug output):
>>> lexer = shlex.shlex("foo, bar, ...")
>>> lexer.debug = 1
>>> print lexer.get_token()
shlex: token='foo'
foo
>>> print lexer.get_token()
shlex: popping token ','
