FWIW worth the choice of 3.10 is not arbitrary on my part. A new Python parser was introduced in Python 3.9: A new parser for CPython https://lwn.net/Articles/816922/ The implementation of this parser allowed for constructions that would be otherwise not possible: An overview of structural pattern matching for Python https://lwn.net/Articles/893193/ Or even removing the sub-parser used for formatted strings: Formalizing f-strings https://lwn.net/Articles/919426/ The bottom issue is that I can not use 3.10 code like match in a file that will be parsed by a previous version. The only option that I see is to place that code in another file/module and import it conditionally in the first file. Not handy but there are worse things in life. :-) -- José Abílio -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
