Well, my actual code doesn't look like that. Trust me, I like clean code. > Seriously, examine your motivations for wanting such a syntax. Does it > make the code more readable? (Absolutely not.)

And yes, it does make it (a lot) more maintainable. Mainly because I don't have those four variables, I have about thirty. And I think I won't need to one or two of them, but maybe all of them at once. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
