It seems that you are looking for macros; maybe Logix "language" (www.livelogix.net/logix) or Boo (boo.codehaus.org) can solve your problem. Otherwise you can do it with very different languages like Lisp or Scheme (with a different syntax) and maybe Dylan too. If you tell us your purpose, maybe we can suggest you a better/different solution. Bye, bearophile -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
