The gettext module uses the convention of defining a function named "_" that maps text into its translation. This conflicts with the automatic interactive interpreter assignment of expressions to a variable with that same name.
While if you are careful, you can avoid that assignment while debugging, and you can choose a different function for gettext, this conflict is a nuisance. I am looking for a way to suppress the expression assignment to _ or to change the name of the variable assigned to. Is this possible? Using Python 2.6.
