The documentation for str.expandtabs([tabsize]) is wrong: "Return a copy of the string where all tab characters are replaced by one or more spaces, depending on the current column and the given tab size. [...]" This should read "zero or more spaces": >>> 'a\tb'.expandtabs(0) 'ab' >>> 'a\tb'.expandtabs(-1) 'ab' The description in Objects/unicodeobject.c does not include this error.

While we're at it, wouldn't it be clearer to say "... where each tab character is replaced by..."?

Other than that, the patch looks good.
