%s is a string.

%U is unicode? What is the context?

A patch I'm adapting has these lines:

static PyObject* module_getattr(PyObject *m, PyObject *name) { char *mod_name_str; ... PyErr_Format(PyExc_AttributeError, "module '%s' has no attribute '%U'", mod_name_str, name);

So it looks like %s is referring to a simple string, and %U is referring to a PyObject, but I was hoping for verification.
