[New-bugs-announce] [issue26540] Python Macros

[Devyn Johnson]

New submission from Devyn Johnson:

Would it be a good idea to add macros to Python? This would allow developers to test a condition (such as, "is this code running on Linux?" or "is this Python version 3.6?"). Then, the compiled bytecode will already contain the needed code, as opposed to testing the conditions during each execution.
