Then please add my -1 to it: I don't think this is feasible. It would require allowing matching INDENT and DEDENT tokens *anywhere* in the grammar; *or* you would have to limit where in the grammar you allow the indent to occur (e.g. after '*' but not before it; after the ',' but not before it). It seems a really big departure from the current Python parsing methodology. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ 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
