[docs] [issue17003] Unification of read() and readline() argument names

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Here is a patch which changes name of optional parameter of read(), read1(), peek(), and readline() methods to most common name "size" in the documentation and _pyio module. truncate() in _pyio fixed to conform with documentation. This changes are safe. There is open question about readlines(). It's optional parameter named as: "hint" in _pyio and the documentation; "size" in bz2; "sizehint" in codecs and mailbox. ---------- keywords: +patch stage: -> patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28798/io_parameter_names.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17003> _______________________________________
