I've always respected Inform 7 while being also unwilling to use it. When you're trying to make your language grammar a subset of your data grammar and then combine them interchangeably, it can be unclear about where the error lies, even if the combination is done in prescribed and restricted ways. Whereas keywords are key words: they give texture to source code, like visual braille. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
