I can help with the compiler changes.
GvR> Great! (Though I was hoping someone from outside PythonLabs -- GvR> we're already too busy, and you in particular.) If someone else wants to do it, I'll be happy to help. I think it's a small project. We've got a new node type in the grammar -- None -- and we'll need a new opcode -- LOAD_NONE. The compiler just needs to generate a LOAD_NONE for every None node. Does the parser prevent assignment to None? Or does the compiler need to check for the use of None in an assignment? Jeremy
