Currently, templates are denoted by [html] (or [plain]) between the
function name
and the parameter list.
I've proposed (and implemented) an alternative form I call template
decorators,
where "@[xml]" or "@[str]" appears on the line before the def.
I've thought of another possibility that I want to run by you.
In python 3, we can (optionally) annotate parameters and functions
like this:
def f(x:int, y:list) -> float:
I'm proposing using a similar annotation syntax for annotating the
function name,
using a colon and either "xml" or "str" to say that the function is a
template
and that it should be compiled using the "xml" transformation, or the
"str"
transformation.
def f:xml():
or
def f:str():
Maybe this notation fits best into the python of the future.
I like that it is as grep-able as the current notation, but a little
shorter.
What do you think?
