I don't think these differences are big enough to legitimate the introduction of a new, confusing, filetype just for them. It's not like Python 2 and 3 are different languages, it's just that a *few* things got introduced or removed. > At the moment True, False and None are in the keyword list but exec > and nonlocal are not. There is a PR to remove True, False and None.

Agreed. I don't think it's a real problem to have e.g. print as a keyword for Python 3, and I think it's really not a problem to have the Python 3 keywords in Python 2. > What do other Python users think? As a hobbyist Python writer and Geany developer, one single Python filetype, PLEASE!
