I'd never write the above; in this specific instance for-else is uncommon enough that you don't want to separate them even more :) But also for more common multi-clause constructs like if-else or try-except I would not normally combine dedent with an empty line; the dedent itself has enough effect on the visual structuring IMO. cheers, Georg -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlJCflsACgkQN9GcIYhpnLDc9ACfUst8SFgoZx81gLpBl3fyOVzC CfIAn21Z3wDymkL623m8mBMLIwb8Uvas =n8yp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-mode mailing list Python-mode@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-mode
