Is it meaningful to use "with" with a tuple, though? Because a tuple isn't a context manager with __enter__ and __exit__ methods. For example: >>> with (1,2,3): pass ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: __exit__ So -- although I'm not arguing for it here -- you'd be turning an code (a runtime AttributeError) into valid syntax. -Ben _______________________________________________ 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
