And I don't like the '=' with nothing on the right.
Expanding on the suggestion someone made of having a single marker of some kind in the argument list, I came up with this:
def __init__(self, text, font = system_font, style = 'plain'): default_size = calc_button_size(text, font, style) Widget.__init__(self, size = default_size, pass font, style)
Using the '*' in the call sites as suggested earlier because of it's consistency with function definitions is probably a better choice. In the above example, would the '*' (or pass) be in the same place as the it is in the function definition? Widget.__init__(self, *, size=default_size, font, style) Or: Widget.__init__(self, size=default_size, *, font, style) I think it should, because then there would be a clearer separation between what are positional and keyword arguments throughout a program. _Ron
