A bonus is that it becomes
clearer at the point of usage that ".data" is member data rather than
a local variable.
I totally disagree. The dot character is less obvious than the 'self.'
sequence, so your proposition is bad at least wrt/ readability (it's
IMHO bad for other reasons too but I won't continue beating that poor
dead horse...)

Man, you are one dense dude! Can I give you a bit of personal advice?
I suggest you quit advertising your denseness in public.

Thanks.

Letting "self" (or whatever the first argument was) be implied in
".cat" does absolutely *NOTHING* to change the internal workings of
the Python interpreter.

You probably have a way better knowledge of Python's compiler and interpreter than I do to assert such a thing. But if it's so easy, please provide a working patch.

It's a very simple idea that you insist on
making complicated. As I said, I could write a pre-processor myself to
implement it in less than a day.

Preprocessor are not a solution. Sorry.

As for "dot" being less obvious than "self.", no kidding?

Nope. I'm deadly serious.

(snip no-op argument and name-calling).

Your posts here are typical. I'm trying to make a suggestion to reduce
the clutter in Python code,

s/the clutter/what Russ P. decided to consider as clutter/

and you throw tomatoes mindlessly.

Oh, you don't stand people disagreing with you, that's it ?

You seem to think that being a "regular" on this newsgroup somehow
gives you special status.

Why so ? Because I answer to your proposition and not agree with your arguments ??? C'mon, be serious, you have the right to post your proposition here, I have the right to post my reaction to your proposition, period. Grow up, boy.

I sure wish I had one tenth the time to
spend here that you have. But even if I did, I have far more important
work to do than to "hang out" on comp.lang.python all day every day.
Man, what a waste of a life. Well, I guess it keeps you off the
streets at least.

Boy, I don't know who you think you're talking to, but you're obviously out of luck here. I'm 41, married, our son is now a teenager, I have an happy social life, quite a lot of work, and no time to waste in the streets. And FWIW, name-calling won't buy you much here.
