[New-bugs-announce] [issue40995] reprlib.Repr.__init__ should accept arguments

[Rémi Lapeyre]

New submission from Rémi Lapeyre <remi.lapeyre at henki.fr>:

reprlib.Repr does not accept arguments for the moment so setting its attributes must be done in multiple steps:

import reprlib
r = reprlib.Repr()
r.maxstring = 10
r.maxset = 4
r.repr(...)


It would be more user-friendly to be able to do:

import reprlib
r = reprlib.Repr(maxstring=10, maxset=4)
r.repr(...)
