New submission from Χρήστος Γεωργίου (Christos Georgiou): https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/resource.html https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/resource.html#resource.RLIMIT_FSIZE ends with the sentence "This only affects the stack of the main thread in a multi-threaded process." I believe this sentence should be appended to https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/resource.html#resource.RLIMIT_STACK This error also exists in previous versions of python documentation. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 252935 nosy: docs@python, tzot priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: 'resource' module documentation error type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25393> _______________________________________

Alakshendra Yadav added the comment: It does seem that the mentioned line belongs under RLIMIT_STACK instead of RLIMIT_FSIZE.
