No, I want ControlFlowException to exist as a parent so that code today can work around the fact that bare "except:" and "except Exception:" catch everything. In Python 3.0, we should have "except Error:" and be able to have it catch everything but control flow exceptions and possibly critical errors. _______________________________________________ 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
