If the goal is to create a syntax that allows tools to recognize names in strings, there is a simple solution which requires tool changes only, for example:
raise Exception('The field ' + ((('size'))) + ' must be a positive integer in ' + ((('Sample.widget')))) Python already treats triple parenthesized strings properly and all you need to do is modify tools to recognize that syntax. It's even backwards compatible, visually striking, and doesn't prevent compile-time string folding. --- Bruce > >
