Let me sum this up. To make SCons codebase more 2/3 compatible, we need to use 0o777 instead of 0777. +1 Do you need help preparing PR? BTW, does anybody know a tool to grep Python AST for that? Maybe pylint with a single rule can do all the job automatically? Would be nice to see the command here for reference. -- anatoly t. _______________________________________________ Scons-dev mailing list Scons-dev@scons.org http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/scons-dev
