Well, I've half re-written that (the entire thing, see doc-sig passim) but this hasn't attracted a great deal of interest. I've just uploaded my most recent version to: http://starship.python.net/crew/mwh/toext/ I haven't done any substantial work on it in a while, and probably won't have time to do any for some time. It would still be nice to have it ready in the 2.5 timeframe. Cheers, mwh -- A difference which makes no difference is no difference at all. -- William James (I think.

[Python-Dev] Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all Python developers!
I'm about to travel to a place where I don't expect to have internet access for over a week, so this is my last message in 2004. I'll have more time next year for Python that I had this year, so I'm looking forward to working again with this great community. I wish everyone happy celebrations of the dark season, and I hope to see many of you at the upcoming PyCon conference.

[Python-Dev] Re: proto-pep: How to change Python's bytecode
Brett C. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] At to the title, bytecodes are a property of the CPython implementation, not of Python itself. Since I think the distinction is quite important to maintain, I would insert the missing 'C' and everywhere else as appropriate. After implementing over 10 new opcodes for my thesis I figured I should write down the basic steps in an info PEP so that there is enough guidelines with this PEP and PEP 306 to cover the bases on changes to the language itself. Over the last several years, various people have reported experimenting with CPython's bytecodes. I wonder if it would be helpful to have a respository of the results, in one place, for new experimenters and curious people to peruse. Anyway, let me know if I seem to be missing anything or have something to add. As I said, the importanct 'C' qualifier. PEP: XXX Title: How to change Python's bytecode /P/CP/ Python source code is compiled down to something called bytecode. Suggested replacements in quotes: CPython compiles Python source code to something called bytecode. This bytecode (which can be viewed as sequences of opcodes) defines what Python is capable of. This is backwards. The language, as defined in the Reference Manual, determines what bytecodes are needed (collectively, not one by one) for a bytecode implementation. As such, knowing how to add, remove, or change the bytecode is important to do properly when changing the abilities of the Python language. Therefore, changes in the language may require changes in the set of bytecodes. In addition, changing the bytecode set for a given definition may result in desireable changes in the interpreter behavior. This document describes how to do so for either reason. Rationale = While changing Python's bytecode is not a frequent occurence, it still happens. /P/CP/ Experiments are much more frequent than committed changes -- all of which start as experiments. ...
