Added 'u' and 'u#' tags for PyArg_ParseTuple - these turn a

...
(1) Added and documented the capability for shlex to handle
lexical-level inclusion and a stack of input sources. Also, the input
stream member is now documented, and the constructor takes an optional
source-filename. The class provides facilities to generate error
messages that track file and line number.
(2) Add a convenience function to generate C-compiler style error
leaders.
