I can't reproduce this, either in Linux or Windows 7. It looks like theoretically there could be a problem at the very beginning, when prevchar is assigned no character (prevchar = ''), but this should fail all the time. A fix could be to change line 276 to elif (prevchar == "'") and ((nextchar != ' ') and (nextchar != ',') and (nextchar != ';') and (nextchar != '.'))): but this is hard to read. The other possibility might be to assign prevchar to something else initially; something that would generate a number in ord(prevchar). |
