It's a bit clumsy to come up with something that will work syntactically since the next token following the yield keyword can be any identifier. You'd thus need another keyword there. Something like: def foogen(arg1): def foogen1(arg2): # Some code here # Some code here yield from foogen1(arg3) # Some code here yield from foogen1(arg4) # Some code here yield from foogen1(arg5) # Some code here yield from foogen1(arg6) It would be nicer if that was yield all from <something> but since "all" is a valid identifier that might break existing code, though maybe the presence of the following "from" can be used to distinguish these two cases: yield <expr> yield all from <expr> Skip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
