I decided to take some of the ideas discussed in the string formatting thread, add a few touches of my own, and write up a PEP.
http://viridia.org/python/doc/PEP_AdvancedStringFormatting.txt (I've also submitted the PEP via the normal channels.) I don't have a prototype, however the PEP is explicit enough about the details of operation that a prototype should be fairly straightforward. -- Talin _______________________________________________ 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
