To me, a context is much larger than a single object. That said, I can't think of any better words. It *might* be worth noting that context managers don't have to control the entire context -- they will often affect only one small facet, and it is OK to nest them if you want to control more than that. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
