[New-bugs-announce] [issue18920] argparse module version action

[Wolfgang Maier]

New submission from Wolfgang Maier:

Hi,
I just noticed that version output generated via the
**'version' action** of the **argparse** module
is routed to stderr. I'd expect regular output to go to stdout instead.
The current behavior also seems inconsistent to me because --help
prints to stdout.
Best,
Wolfgang
