Should this not be
if not open( disk ):
error( "Can't open disk" )
else:
do_lots_of_things_with(disk)
as for readability ?
Or even
if not open( disk ):
error( "Can't open disk" )
return what_needs_to_be_returned
do_lots_of_things_with(disk)
The latter version may need some code reorganization, though.
