curses.start_color() Must be called if the programmer wants to use colors, and before any other color manipulation routine is called. It is good practice to call this routine right after initscr(). start_color() initializes eight basic colors (black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, and white), and two global variables in the curses module, COLORS and COLOR_PAIRS, containing the maximum number of colors and color-pairs the terminal can support. It also restores the colors on the term

__str__() Returns an approximation of the Header as a string, using an unlimited line length. All pieces are converted to unicode using the specified encoding and joined together appropriately. Any pieces with a charset of 'unknown-8bit' are decoded as ASCII using the 'replace' error handler. Changed in version 3.2: Added handling for the 'unknown-8bit' charset.

class email.headerregistry.AddressHeader Address headers are one of the most complex structured header types. The AddressHeader class provides a generic interface to any address header. This header type provides the following additional attributes: groups A tuple of Group objects encoding the addresses and groups found in the header value. Addresses that are not part of a group are represented in this list as single-address Groups whose display_name is None. addresses A tuple of Add

re.split(pattern, string, maxsplit=0, flags=0) Split string by the occurrences of pattern. If capturing parentheses are used in pattern, then the text of all groups in the pattern are also returned as part of the resulting list. If maxsplit is nonzero, at most maxsplit splits occur, and the remainder of the string is returned as the final element of the list. >>> re.split('\W+', 'Words, words, words.') ['Words', 'words', 'words', ''] >>> re.split('(\W+)', 'Words, words, wor

shlex.lineno Source line number (count of newlines seen so far plus one).

class importlib.abc.Finder An abstract base class representing a finder. Deprecated since version 3.3: Use MetaPathFinder or PathEntryFinder instead. abstractmethod find_module(fullname, path=None) An abstact method for finding a loader for the specified module. Originally specified in PEP 302, this method was meant for use in sys.meta_path and in the path-based import subsystem. Changed in version 3.4: Returns None when called instead of raising NotImplementedError.

logging.log(level, msg, *args, **kwargs) Logs a message with level level on the root logger. The other arguments are interpreted as for debug(). Note The above module-level convenience functions, which delegate to the root logger, call basicConfig() to ensure that at least one handler is available. Because of this, they should not be used in threads, in versions of Python earlier than 2.7.1 and 3.2, unless at least one handler has been added to the root logger before the threads are started

GNUTranslations.ngettext(singular, plural, n) Do a plural-forms lookup of a message id. singular is used as the message id for purposes of lookup in the catalog, while n is used to determine which plural form to use. The returned message string is a Unicode string. If the message id is not found in the catalog, and a fallback is specified, the request is forwarded to the fallback’s ngettext() method. Otherwise, when n is 1 singular is returned, and plural is returned in all other cases. Here

socket.get_inheritable() Get the inheritable flag of the socket’s file descriptor or socket’s handle: True if the socket can be inherited in child processes, False if it cannot. New in version 3.4.

tab(tab_id, option=None, **kw) Query or modify the options of the specific tab_id. If kw is not given, returns a dictionary of the tab option values. If option is specified, returns the value of that option. Otherwise, sets the options to the corresponding values.
