Can somebody remind how to check script compatibility with old Python versions?

I can remember PHP_CompatInfo class for PHP that parses a script or directory to find out the minimum version and extensions required for them to run, and I wonder if there was anything like this for Python?

You posted on the *python-dev* mailing list. On this list the key *Python developers* discuss the future of the language and its implementation. Topics include Python design issues, release mechanics, and maintenance of existing releases. Please, do not post general Python questions to this list! For help with Python please use the mailing list python-list@python.org or the newsgroup comp.lang.python. Messages are routed between the two. so they're basically the same thing. -- Gerhard
