That's half-true on both counts: First of all, any new library must be PEP 8-compliant for submission to the standard library, so PEP 8 is indeed somewhat prescriptive. Second, you can configure pylint to respect your personal style; I think that pylint's default PEP 8 configuration makes a lot of sense. -- Aahz (a...@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." --Red Adair -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
