Putting these thoughts together, we could use different alphabets to distinguish symbols from other identifers. For example, ordinary names -- Roman and Greek; symbols -- Cyrillic, Hebrew and Arabic, possibly others. A single lambda, of course, would be reserved for replacing the keyword "lambda", thus making lambda expressions more concise and freeing up a word for use as a name. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
