I object to adding a new type to the stdlib just for this PEP. Since iterating over the keys is significantly more useful than iterating over the values, that suggests a dictionary as the most appropriate type. If someone *really* wants a quick way to get dotted access to the contents of dictionary: >>> data = dict(a=1, b=2, c=3) >>> ns = type('', (), data) >>> ns.a 1 >>> ns.b 2 >>> ns.c 3 Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ 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
