Summary: error in the sys module documentation

Initial Comment:
In this text from the sys module documentation: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-sys.html

"argv
    The list of command line arguments passed to a Python script. argv[0] is the script name (it is operating system dependent whether this is a full pathname or not). If the command was executed using the -c command line option to the interpreter, argv[0] is set to the string '-c'. If no script name was passed to the Python interpreter, argv has zero length."

the second argv[0] should be argv[1] because argv[0] is the name of the script.

No, it's correct as it is. There *is no* scriptname with -c.
