Martin Panter added the comment: Regarding the documentation patch: I like to start sentences with a capital letter. Perhaps change it to start “Calling :func:`exit` only terminates . . .”. With the code change patch, it might be neater to use the SystemExit.code attribute rather than e.args[0]. ---------- nosy: +vadmium _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6634> _______________________________________
