[IronPython] Old print syntax as option on IronPython 3

[Markus Schaber]

Hi,

 

I just saw that Boo supports both print as a function and as a
statement. 

 

So I had the Idea of adding an language option to IronPython which
allows both syntaxes (and probably emitting a warning when using the old
one). This could help in the transition of old scripts to IronPython 3.

 

I know that the cPython parser does not allow that (using the same word
as keyword and identifier), but maybe the IronPython parser is flexible
enough to allow both usages?

 

Just a weird, heretical suggestion, feel free to ignore my mail. J

 

Regards,

Markus
