Just to note, if a token is desired, it could be treated as a pseudo-keyword much like 'as' was prior to 2.6 (or 2.5 with future 'with_statement'). That is, it is only treated as a keyword when parsing the expression defining its use. With that, the list of available "keywords" becomes much broader. -- Jeremy Kloth _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
