Guido van Rossum added the comment: This isn't going to change. 'global' is one of those rare pieces of syntax that are not executed by the interpreter but detected by the parser.
Note that there are other things like this, e.g. the presence of 'yield' in a function makes it a generator. FWIW, the "if 0:" issue is different; that's a genuine bug, see issue #1875. ---------- nosy: +gvanrossum resolution: -> invalid status: open -> closed __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1888> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
