My apologies Guido.
Subtracting the inappropriate syntax suggestions leaves the following
hopefully on-topic documentation suggestions.
It may be good to have a stronger association to "try" in the
documentation by:
1. Suggesting to the programmer that in many situations a with can
be thought of as 'try with'.
2. Reminding or clarify that a with will handle the object or
context cleanup, but the programmer *may still* need to catch exceptions
that are generated within the block with a "try-except" at some point.
3. The "with" documentation could possibly be grouped with or after
the "try" documentation as it may be easier to understand in that context.
Regards,
Ron
