New submission from Jared Bevis: I'm a new python learner but I noticed inconsistent behavior of the backspace character when used in strings. I'm running 2.7.10. Whenever the backspace character '\b' is at the very end of a string, nothing happens, but if it is in the middle of string it behaves as expected.
For example: print "12345" + '\b' returns: >>>12345 But: print "12345" + '\b' + '6' returns: >>> 12346 ---------- components: Regular Expressions messages: 251049 nosy: Jared Bevis, ezio.melotti, mrabarnett priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Backspace Escape Character at End of String type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25174> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
