I think you have forgotten to tell the shell which interpreter to use

What would be an almost automated way to develop for both python 2.x and
3.x?
2to3 apparently can only output a diff or write directly on the file (with
-w), but why doesn't it output the resulting file for 3.x instead?
So for a single python file I tried a makefile like:
Makefile:

Apart from that, you could also use a shorter format which is a
correction over what you were trying with earlier.
Here..
uid = "scott"
pwd = "tiger"

IOError: [Errno 4] Interrupted system call
What causes the exception? Is it necessary to catch this exception
and manually retry the Queue

I don't think they were intended to be inconsistent types,
Quoting Matt Chaput :
Does anyone know the "right" way to write a unit test for code that
uses multiprocessing on Windows?
The problem is that with both "python setup.py tests" and
"nosetests", when they get to testing any code that starts Processes
they spawn multiple copies of the testi

I prefer special symbol "congestion" to special symbol proliferation. A
lot. A language with few special symbols looks less like line noise, is
easier to read and write, and is easier to google for answers about.

O. that's what you call that long-winded nonsense? Education? You must

be english? Has it not ever occured to you that people take pride in
their language?
