Well, when using 2to3 it already handles that stuff. But a module like that would be very handy if you want to support both 2.6 and 3.x without 2to3. With such a module it would be quite simple. In fact, I think the module should be called "timemachine". ;-) -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
