According to http://docs.python.org/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-print-statement the following with result in the print statement NOT printing a trailing space: import sys print u"ASD",; sys.stdout.write(u"") However, 2to3 currently translates this to: import sys print("ASD", end=' '); sys.stdout.write("") It *should* translate to: import sys print("ASD", end='') You can also see the discussion of this on this lib3to2 bug report: http://bitbucket.org/amentajo/lib3to2/issue/13/print-3-end-isnt-translated-properly and translation of this between 2to3 and 3to2 here: http://pythontranslationparty.appspot.com/6004/
