FWIW, speaking as one native speaker, I'm not sure about that. "do ... if not condition" doesn't bother me, whether I think of the condition as an exception or as the normal state of affairs. I find "do ... unless condition" to be quite awkward if the condition is a normal state. _______________________________________________ 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
