Not likely. It is possible that the latter spelling would make it possible for Py3.0. eliminate list comps entirely. However, they are very popular and practical, so my bet is that they will live on. The more likely change is that in Py3.0 list comps will no longer expose the loop variable outside the loop. Raymond Hettinger -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
