That was also my sentiment. These issues seem to be overestimated, or perceived as a lack of care for the Windows platform. This perception is wrong, I do care as much as others about the Windows platform. It's just that having to manually run a script from time to time if your editor screws up is not a big deal. I have to do it myself, when SVN refuses my commit and tells me to run Tools/reindent.py. It is also why it doesn't sound reasonable to involve PSF money just for such a psychological issue. But it's not my money anyway ;) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers
