[Python-Dev] Incomplete Internationalization in Argparse Module
Hello, all. I was wondering if the following string was left untouched by gettext for a purpose (from line 720 of argparse.py, in class ArgumentError): 'argument %(argument_name)s: %(message)s' There may be other untranslatable strings in the argparse module, but I have yet to encounter them in the wild. Thank you. ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

I agree. However, an incorrect choice for an argument with a choices parameter results in this string.

Probably so that anyone introspecting on the error message can count on somewhat of a consistent format (comes into play with doctest typically). ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/guido%40python.org -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
