--pyi Format all input files like typing stubs
regardless of file extension (useful when
piping source on standard input).
-S, --skip-string-normalization
Don't normalize string quotes or prefixes.
- -N, --skip-numeric-underscore-normalization
- Don't normalize underscores in numeric
- literals.
--check Don't write the files back, just return the
status. Return code 0 means nothing would
change. Return code 1 means some files

*Black* standardizes most numeric literals to use lowercase letters for the
syntactic parts and uppercase letters for the digits themselves: `0xAB`
instead of `0XAB` and `1e10` instead of `1E10`. Python 2 long literals are
-styled as `2L` instead of `2l` to avoid confusion between `l` and `1`. In
-Python 3.6+, *Black* adds underscores to long numeric literals to aid
-readability: `100000000` becomes `100_000_000`.
+styled as `2L` instead of `2l` to avoid confusion between `l` and `1`.
-For regions where numerals are grouped differently (like [India](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system)
-and [China](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_numerals#Whole_numbers)),
-the `-N` or `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` command line option
-makes *Black* preserve underscores in numeric literals.

## blackd
- `X-Skip-String-Normalization`: corresponds to the `--skip-string-normalization`
command line flag. If present and its value is not the empty string, no string
normalization will be performed.
- - `X-Skip-Numeric-Underscore-Normalization`: corresponds to the
- `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` command line flag.
- `X-Fast-Or-Safe`: if set to `fast`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
passed the `--fast` command line flag.
- `X-Python-Variant`: if set to `pyi`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
passed the `--pyi` command line flag. Otherwise, its value must correspond to
a Python version or a set of comma-separated Python versions, optionally
- prefixed with `cpy` or `pypy`. For example, to request code that is compatible
- with PyPy 3.5 and CPython 3.5, set the header to `pypy3.5,cpy3.5`.

error response, mentioning the name of the problematic header in the message body.
