Not to my knowledge. I would prefer to not add a fixer for this directly to 2to3 because it is not correct for most programs. However, I think 2to3 should grow some sort of plugin system, so custom fixers can easily be written and used. -- Regards, Benjamin _______________________________________________ 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
