filename. Remove leading and trailing spaces; convert other spaces to underscores; and remove anything that is not an alphanumeric, dash, underscore, or dot. >>> get_valid_filename("john's portrait in 2004.jpg") 'johns_portrait_in_2004.jpg'
dashes to single dashes. Remove characters that aren't alphanumerics, underscores, or hyphens. Convert to lowercase. Also strip leading and trailing whitespace, dashes, and underscores.
Supports both single and double quotes, and supports escaping quotes with backslashes. In the output, strings will keep their initial and trailing quote marks and escaped quotes will remain escaped (the results can then be further processed with unescape_string_literal()). >>> list(smart_split(r'This is "a person\'s" test.')) ['This', 'is', '"a person\\\'s"', 'test.'] >>> list(smart_split(r"Another 'person\'s' test.")) ['Another', "'person\\'s'", 'test.'] >>> list(smart_split(r'A "\"funky\" style" test.')) ['A', '"\\"funky\\" style"', 'test.']
>>> unescape_string_literal('"abc"') 'abc' >>> unescape_string_literal("'abc'") 'abc' >>> unescape_string_literal('"a \"bc\""') 'a "bc"' >>> unescape_string_literal("'\'ab\' c'") "'ab' c"
Preserve all white space except added line breaks consume the space on which they break the line. Don't wrap long words, thus the output text may have lines longer than ``width``.
