New submission from E. Paine <paineeli...@gmail.com>:
As-per PEP 634, structural pattern matching is now in Python. This introduces the `match` and `case` keywords. IDLE does not highlight these. The problem is that these are listed in `keyword.softkwlist` rather than `keyword.kwlist` (which is what IDLE uses). This confuses me, as this is not a __future__ feature and there is no discussion of it becoming one in #42128. There is also no discussion (that I could find) about which list it should be put in. The addition to softkwlist was done in PR-22917. Do we change IDLE to use softkwlist, or move those keywords into kwlist? ---------- assignee: terry.reedy components: IDLE messages: 392705 nosy: epaine, taleinat, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: IDLE: highlight new `match` / `case` syntax type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.11 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44010> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
