IMHO, that's no Python syntax wart, but a coding style wart.
What's wrong with this:
for Link in GetEachRecord(
"links",
("from_episode",),
"to_episode = %s",
[EpisodeID],
"order by when_created"
):
out.write("<P><A HREF=\"%s\">Back to episode %d</A>\n" % (
LinkToMe({"ep" : Link["from_episode"]}),
Link["from_episode"]
)
)
It's still quite crammed; I think I'd write it more explicit.
(Personally, I've never needed the possibility to tear a "for" apart
so it covers more than ten lines, or to waste lines by placing
single parentheses or colons in them -- my screen really isn't
unlimited in size.)
