Ah, okay. Barry mentioned something about adjusting the python-mode syntax tables to include Python 3.x stuff, though patches are always welcome. <wink>
If left to me, it might not happen until I start writing a lot of Python 3 code :).

That might be a bit more challenging. I was thinking today that it would be kind of nice to have a set of predefined settings for Python's new C style (someone mentioned producing that). Should that go in the C/C++ mode or be delivered somehow else?
I think it might not be horrible if python-mode.el included a function that installed Python's new C style, which you could then select through your mode hook or whatever. It's been ages since I hacked on that stuff, but I wonder how far Python's new C style differs from the built-in styles. Maybe there's one that's already close enough? - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBR6fITXEjvBPtnXfVAQIlZwQApRs/VC2tV7auSRjK2AuWuFf7i/k5EPTf ZaBSgmHtb8jENTvOZju2XOnOVdhlgHO5Zec5ptvXKc3Y1Mzl9API2RjH0jP9G8mt mzI22bGScnCbA5bpzM7kh5cyg939+GzUmUF7BsRoAquIwKRdf5NHbJG+qcxKO0pK vcKIuf6eJxM= =Ltuj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
