[New-bugs-announce] [issue2933] "Documenting Python: Syntax" bug

Wallace Owen report at bugs.python.org
Wed May 21 03:21:18 CEST 2008


New submission from Wallace Owen <owen at metamachine.com>:

The 'documenting Python' document, section 4.1, at this url:
 http://docs.python.org/doc/latex-syntax.html
has an incorrect (but correctly spelled) word in one of it's sentences:

----
Macros which take no parameters but which should not be followed by a
word space do not need special treatment if the following character in
the document source if not a name character (such as punctuation).
----

The phrase "source if not a name" should be "source is not a name".

By the way, in attempting to classify this bug within the parameters
allowed, I observe that there is no correct 'Type' for this bug: none of
the allowed choices seem to apply.  It's not a "crash", "compile error",
"resource usage", "security", "behavior", "performance" or "feature
request".  I figured "feature request" would ring the fewest alarm
bells, so I used that.
