Is there some reason that you think Python is incapable of implementing lexers that do this, just because Python lexer accepts it? Note that if you're using your lexer to mark up or pretty print or whatever Python source, it's wrong - 0x is (rightly or not) a valid Python literal. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
