Dead right ! Is there any reason why gathering this semantic information requires this decorator to wrap the function in a combinatorial map ? Can't the information be gathered wherever we need it *without* modifying the actual function ? You could do whatever you need with a decorator that, when applied to a function f with some flags, stores a copy of this function f and works with the flags while returning the original function f, can't you ? This would make it less intrustive, and actually not intrusive at all ! Nathann -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
