No can do - with needs tuples, except isn't getting them. If we did allow tuples in both cases, the "except" ones wouldn't be cleared at the end of the block, but the "with" ones would... unless we decided to make them all go away. There might be sane reasons for doing that with "with", but I'm not sure those reasons apply to "except". (sigh) Good language design is *hard*. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
