Re: [Python-Dev] Acquire/release functionality

I haven't found a way to make assignments optional (in recent experiments). Is this possible with Python's Parser?

It should be possible to do it the same way as expressions/assignments are done now, i.e. parse it as with_stmt ::= 'with' <expr> ['=' <expr>] ':' <suite> and sort it out in the compiler.
