Python provides several functions for manipulating raw Py_UNICODE strings, but they aren't documented. Below are their signatures. PyAPI_FUNC(size_t) Py_UNICODE_strlen(const Py_UNICODE *u); PyAPI_FUNC(Py_UNICODE*) Py_UNICODE_strcpy( Py_UNICODE *s1, const Py_UNICODE *s2); PyAPI_FUNC(Py_UNICODE*) Py_UNICODE_strncpy( Py_UNICODE *s1, const Py_UNICODE *s2, size_t n); PyAPI_FUNC(int) Py_UNICODE_strcmp( const Py_UNICODE *s1, const Py_UNICODE *s2); PyAPI_FUNC(Py_UNICODE*) Py_UNICODE_strchr( const Py_UNICODE *s, Py_UNICODE c );

If, for this and your previous two issues, you could add a suggestion as to precisely where you would make an addition and what minimally adequate text you would add (even unformatted ascii text in a message) that is consistent with surrounding style, action would likely happen sooner.

For this one, I suggest adding something to http://docs.python.org/dev/c-api/unicode.html#plain-py-unicode

There are more undocumented functions in unicode.h. It makes sense to fix all of them in one patch. Closing this as superseded by #10435.
