But it doesn't do anything for the (I expect much more common) case of factoring out something in a function body and making it a nested function -- you'd still have to change the form of all the references to the name in that case. Better not to have a scheme that uses counters or scope names at all, I think. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
