@ -613,17 +613,15 @@ class Message:
the form (CHARSET, LANGUAGE, VALUE). Note that both CHARSET and
LANGUAGE can be None, in which case you should consider VALUE to be
encoded in the us-ascii charset. You can usually ignore LANGUAGE.
The parameter value (either the returned string, or the VALUE item in
the 3-tuple) is always unquoted, unless unquote is set to False.
Your application should be prepared to deal with 3-tuple return
values, and can convert the parameter to a Unicode string like so:
If your application doesn't care whether the parameter was RFC 2231
encoded, it can turn the return value into a string as follows:
param = msg.get_param('foo')
if isinstance(param, tuple):
param = unicode(param[2], param[0] or 'us-ascii')
param = email.utils.collapse_rfc2231_value(rawparam)
In any case, the parameter value (either the returned string, or the
VALUE item in the 3-tuple) is always unquoted, unless unquote is set
to False.
