Before 1.6a3, should the sre module be turned on, replacing re? That way it'll start getting tested; better we find problems sooner rather than later... --amk

That would be nice. If I replace re.py with "from sre import *" and run test_re.py, I grt in trouble in the sub() test: $ ./python ../Lib/test/test_re.py Running tests on re.search and re.match Running tests on re.sub Traceback (most recent call last): File "../Lib/test/test_re.py", line 41, in ? assert re.sub(r'\d+', bump_num, '08.2 -2 23x99y') == '9.3 -3 24x100y' File "./../Lib/sre.py", line 35, in sub return _compile(pattern).sub(repl, string, count) File "./../Lib/sre.py", line 84, in _sub return _subn(pattern, template, string, count)[0] File "./../Lib/sre.py", line 114, in _subn return string[:0].join(s), n TypeError: sequence item 0 not a string $ It appears that the value of s is a list containing alternating zeros and strings: [0, '.', 0, ' -', 0, ' ', 0, 'x', 0, 'y']. No time to look into this further, but it could be a bug in sre._subn(). --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)

It's a typo; fixed. However, test_re then runs into the fact that _expand(), which should expand escapes in the replacement string, isn't implemented yet. --amk

Now-were-just-waiting-for-the-baby-announcements-ly,
Guido & Kim just spent the last night of their honeymoon with Uncle Timmy (who is now living in a Virginia motel room), and I can assure you no babies were made by any pair of us tonight. Unless Guido is quicker than he looks. i'm-certainly-not-ly y'rs - tim

in addition to the typo you noticed, there's a backtracking (I think) problem that affects xmllib.py and tokenize.py... I'm working on it. </F>
