but its quite frustrating testing/developing new py3k software when many modules/extensions we take for granted in 2.x isn't available. in the meantime, this patch serves as a very convenient stopgap for developers (even w/ its bugs), for writing py3k migration code in 2.x (& access to all its extensions) for example, its a difficult task to port a big project like numpy to py3k all @ once. but this patch could allow u to piece-wise transform it, one script @ a time, to py3k language syntax compliance. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3238> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
