I hope it doesn't. Python is so much more than python-mode. A question, are you an FSF Emacs user or a XEmacs user? I ask because my understanding is that FSF Emacs has its own python-mode these days that's different than ours. I think most of the devs on this list use XEmacs, though of course we want it to be FSF Emacs compatible. FSF Emacs python-mode maintainer doesn't communicate with us, AFAIK. As for underscore in word class, the "historical" part is that Guido liked it that way, so that's the way it stayed. I understand what you're saying though. My suggestion would be to try rebinding it. It seems like you know enough about how to do that and what to look for in breakage, and probably also how to fix such breakage. Speaking solely for myself, I think we would accept patches that allowed python-mode to work either way, perhaps keyed off a new configuration variable (py- historical-underscore-behavior-p ?). If you can come up with such patches, and it works on both XEmacs and FSF Emacs, let us know and we'd consider applying them. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRjiWhXEjvBPtnXfVAQLNYQP9ELl7MnjF6/8GQTmIAt9aZrW3hMWtRLD9 isCr33GkxK1XmiVJvodq1Eb4aKCM5ujS+B7FM6duHihC1Mg0fIVq8yD2Ki6JTQpc 41ox5q3nSnonTfvfOf0vjv14vsvnpZnhcHE/mxevLbxAJacf8t7IMWOE6FauVxYl YDZ4QdBYmr0= =ADUh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-mode mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-mode
