New submission from Ralph Corderoy <ralph-pythonbugs@inputplus.co.uk>: The re module defines \b in a regexp to need \w one side and \W the other. What about when the end of the string or line is involved? perlre(1) says that's treated as a \W. Python should precisely document that case too. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 124097 nosy: docs@python, ralph.corderoy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: re module doesn't describe string boundaries for \b _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10713> _______________________________________
