Hello, given I can't fully comprehend the user request (sent on docs@ as of http://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2011-September/005791.html), I'm just echoing it : >>> recently I embedded Python into one of my applications, which included some string parsing. In my opinion the doc page about parsing arguments (http://docs.python.org/c-api/arg.html) is missing the information, that you must not free the returned const char *, like e.g. said here (http://docs.python.org/c-api/string.html#PyString_AsString). It was quite confusing for my first, so I would suggest adding this tiny bit of information. <<<
