In the entry at https://docs.python.org/3/library/bdb.html#bdb.Bdb.canonic, ", stripped of surrounding angle brackets" is wrong, and should be replaced by ". 'Filenames' with angle brackets, such as "<stdin>", generated in interactive mode, are returned unchanged" >>> 1/0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ZeroDivisionError: division by zero (IDLE generates "<PyShell#n>", when n is statement number, starting with 0.) This and any other doc errors we find should be corrected in this issue, but perhaps in a separate PR that can be backported separately.
