1. This kind of suggestion is more appropriately directed to python-ideas 2. We already support this, look at the ast module and in particular the ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST flag to the compile() builtin function. For an example of advanced usage, look at the py.test module and it's meta-importer that rewrites assert statements Regards, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
