Not very practical but fun to make and good for wtf moments when reading old code :)
self.attrs['class'] = ' '.join([x for x in self.attr.get('class') and self.attr['class'].split(' ') or []] + [self.pastClass]) Could make it a little shorter with two lines: e, a, p = self.attrs.get('class'), self.attrs, self.pastClass a['class'] = ' '.join([x for x in e and e.split(' ') or []] + [p]) Could fit the final version in with three tabs and it's only 79 chars!
