Not at all... it sounds like you want to look at the ast module. Matthew Desmarais gave a talk on doing things like this (mostly for code analysis) at PyCon, called "What Would You Do With An AST?"; a quick Google should find both the video and the slides. > Now would not it be possible to write a simple tokenizer that takes a python > file and returns a nice structured format of the same, that python-mode > can interpret to colorize/manage the code? Most of that is already done in ast; the hard(er) part is walking the tree and using the results. -- Tim Lesher <tles...@gmail.com> _______________________________________________ Python-mode mailing list Python-mode@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-mode
