[Python-Dev] PEP 553; the interaction between $PYTHONBREAKPOINT and -E (original) (raw)

I don't know what is the best option, but I dislike adding two options, PYTHONBREAKPOINT and -X nobreakpoint, for the same features. I would become complicated to know which option has the priority.

Just to close the loop, I’ve landed the PEP 553 PR treating PYTHONBREAKPOINT the same as all other environment variables when -E is present. Let’s see how that goes.

Thanks all for the great feedback and reviews. Now I’m thinking about putting a backport version on PyPI. :)

Cheers, -Barry
