New submission from Alex Mashianov mashianov@gmail.com:
Python docs says print() function default sep='': http://joxi.ru/EA44JnfonNwLAb.png
While in reality sep=' ': http://joxi.ru/n2YXyRsbw6oYm6.png
Probably it's a bug with space not being escaped in html to prevent trimming.

In the sphinx source it's ' ' so maybe it's a problem with the rendering part.

Space is not trimmed. You can confirm there is a space by copy&paste it from rendered HTML.
print(*objects, sep=' ', end='\n', file=sys.stdout, flush=False)¶
So this is caused by rendering <em>sep=' '</em>. I don't like <em>, but I'm not sure this can be customized by theme.

Recent Sphinx uses <em class="sig-paren">. So we can add style like this:
.sig-paren { font-family: monospace, sans-serif; font-style: normal; }

Maybe just explain defaults in the text?
Print *objects* to the text stream *file* (the standard output by default), separated by *sep* (a space by default) and followed by *end* (a newline by default).

PR 17062 about stating it's a space by default has been rejected.
I also feel we should just enhance the space width in the prototype.
I personally see the space, but as it's in italic, I can understand it's very easy to miss it.
I like the `font-family: monospace, sans-serif; font-style: normal;` a lot, it make it clear, see screenshot, but it's an issue for python-docs-theme, opening it there: https://github.com/python/python-docs-theme/issues/42

Hi!
Thanks Alex for reporting, and everyone involved.
This has been fixed in python-docs-theme, so it's fixed for >=3.8. As 3.7 is in security-only (and embeds python-docs-theme), better not touch it.
Bests.
---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed
