Try googling "python-ideas string prefixes". Doing mimimal diligence is a reasonable expectation before writing up an idea.
Thanks for the query "string prefixes". I tried other queries but not that one. I ended my first message with "I hope I didn't break any unspoken rules" and it seems I have.
My two cents (speaking as long-term observer, not as the moderator, or perhaps in addition to the moderator ;) - I think your ask was appropriate, and I think the response of “here’s the search you should do!” was great. Personally I think we could do without the implication that you should have done more due diligence. python-ideas is PRECISELY for this kind of question. Other forums should have a higher barrier to entry (like python-dev), but not python-ideas. best, —titus
