"""
The message ID is returned lowercased and there is no way to access
the original ID the server sent. Now at least some news servers
are very picky about the case of the ID and return errors when
fetching articles with mixed case given a lowercased version
of the ID.
The solution is simple: remove the string.lower() call.
"""
(I might add that the lowercasing was probably introduced as a result
of sloppy copy-and-paste coding; there's a string.lower in a similar
piece of code a bit higher in the source, that makes more sense --
it's lowercasing the group name.)
After a version by Fredrik Lundh that I found on the web somewhere.
(I like mine better, but of course that may have to do with my alcohol
consumption. :-)
yours, please let me know for propoer acknowledgement.)
This avoids recompiling files that haven't changed; it adds a -f
option to force recompilation.
- Fixed a bug where a syntax error was reported when a document
started with white space. (White space at the start of a document
is valid if there is no XML declaration.)
- Improved the speed quite a bit for documents that don't make use of
namespaces.
NOTE: There is still a bug of some sort in the behavior of zlib. In
at least one case, inflate returns Z_OK (which is typically
interpreted to mean that more output space is needed) when it has
finished inflating a buffer. This has been reported as a bug to the
zlib maintainers; we may need to change the Python interface.
Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation. This
version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in
Python (also the one in 1.5.2a).
This version supports XML namespaces.
File names with "funny" characters get translated wrong by
pathname2url (any variety). E.g. the (Unix) file "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp"
gets translated into "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp" which, when interpreted as a
URL is file "/ufs/sjoerd/" with fragment ID "tmp".
Here's an easy fix. (An alternative fix would be to change the
various implementations of pathname2url and url2pathname to include
calls to quote and unquote.
[The main problem is with the normal use of URLs:
url = url2pathname(file)
transmit url
url, tag = splittag(url)
urlopen(url)
]
In addition, this patch fixes some uses of unquote:
- the host part of URLs should be unquoted
- the file path in the FTP URL should be unquoted before it is split
into components.
- because of the latter, I removed all unquoting from ftpwrapper,
and moved it to the caller, but that is not essential
string we find ourselves in, based on the passed in delimiter.
(py-compute-indentation): Fixes for indentation errors when we land
inside a triple quoted string. For example:
def foo():
if os.path.isfile(o_pri_mbox_file) and os.path.isfile(o_pub_mbox_file):
print """\
I found both a private and a public mbox archive file
private: %s
public : %s
I won't move either file, but you should choose one and move it to
%s
You may want to merge them manually, but be careful about exposing private
correspondences to the public.""" % (
o_pri_mbox_file, o_pub_mbox_file, mbox_file)
*----indentation would be wrong on this line.
