"Why, this is a simple docstring change. How difficult can it be?", I thought.
Ah ha ha ha.
Here's a patch against the 3.5 branch. It should also apply cleanly to 3.6 or 3.7, except for a little Argument Clinic noise.
The patch changes 3 occurrences of the truncate() docstring in Lib/_pyio.py, and 1 each in Modules/_io/{bytesio.c,fileio.c,iobase.c,stringio.c}. Whew! Do we want to change all of these occurrences, or just the one specific case of StringIO? It seemed to me that we want to change them all. |
