[issue6783] Add a builtin method to 'int' for base/radix conversion
Yuv Gre ubershme...@gmail.com added the comment: Use case - 'hashing' a counter for example like video ID's in youtube. One could use a regular int internally and publish a shorter 62-base id for links. Guido said on http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006- January/059923.html I think we ought to let this sit for a while and come back to it in a few week's time. Is 'base' really the right name? It could just as well be considered a conversion in the other direction. In common usage, 'base' and 'radix' are about synonymous (except no-one uses radix). Pethaps the 2nd argument should not be a keyword argument? Also, this discussion made me wonder if conversions using other bases than 10 should even be built-ins. A library module seems a more appropriate place I'm hoping 182 weeks of clarity could help iron this issue out. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6783 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The docs specifically say that : Files are always opened in binary mode, even if no binary mode was specified. This is done to avoid data loss due to encodings using 8-bit values. This means that no automatic conversion of '\n' is done on reading and writing. And yet, opening the file with an explicit binary mode resolves the situation: codecs.open(whatever.txt,rb,utf-8).read() This reads the file with the original newlines unmodified. The implementation of codecs.open and the documentation are out of sync. The implementation looks like this: if encoding is not None and \ 'b' not in mode: # Force opening of the file in binary mode mode = mode + 'b' in both Python 2 and 3, so I'm not sure what could be causing this. -- nosy: +lemburg ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6788 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue3143] development docs waste a lot of horizontal space on left nav bar
Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment: I just did a quick test about making the sidebar collapsible. Add these lines at the end of default.css to see how the page might look like with the sidebar collapsed: /* collapse the sidebar */ div.sphinxsidebar { /* border: 3px solid red; */ width: 1em !important; } /* hide the content of the sidebar */ div.sphinxsidebarwrapper { display: none; } /* expand the page to use the sidebar space */ div.bodywrapper{ /* border: 3px solid blue; */ margin-left: 1em !important; } A / button has to be added (via JS) to collapse and restore the sidebar. The CSS properties have to be changed via JS too, the users without JS won't notice any difference at all. When the sidebar is collapsed, it is possible to make it appear again clicking anywhere on the 1em-wide collapsed sidebar on the left (and not only on the ). The sidebar could be hidden completely by placing the / button or an Hide/Show sidebar link in the top-left corner, but I don't know exactly where (before the small python icon? just under it in a floating box?). The WebDeveloper plug-in of Firefox can be used to see the changes on the fly (CSS - Edit CSS - paste the code at the end of default.css), otherwise you can edit the CSS manually.

[issue3058] Let SimpleXMLRPCServer pass client_address to called functions.
andrew cooke and...@acooke.org added the comment: Came here wondering how best to solve this myself. I already subclass the request handler to do client validation (password etc) and it stuck me that a simpler solution would be to use thread local storage. This avoids having to modify dispatch. The disadvantage is that this uses a single global scope. I don't think it's a better solution than that suggested by samwyse for a final solution, but I thought I'd note it here because it's a simpler alternative for people needing to add a work-around, and I suspect many people aren't aware of the possibility. import _threading_local ; help(_threading_local) If this wouldn't work (maybe I've misunderstood the server threading?) then I'd appreciate someone correcting me.
