It could still be solved at the lexical level by requiring every continuation line to have more leading whitespace than the first of the lines being continued, and still not mapping that whitespace into an INDENT, but of course that approach adds complexity. All I can say is that it worked in practice in EFL, and I adopted the same approach in Snocone without any complaints. (Of course Python has lots more users than Snocone) _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
