[pypy-issue] [issue757] unicode.isspace() incorrect

[Friedel Wolff]

Friedel Wolff <friedel at translate.org.za> added the comment:

Here is another difference that could be related, and I'm reasonably sure it is
a bug:

python -c 'print u"a\u200bb".split()'
[u'a', u'b']

pypy   -c 'print u"a\u200bb".split()'
[u'a\u200bb']

\u200b is used in some languages to separate words for the sake of line wrapping
or other word based processing, but without actually inserting a visual space in
rendering.
