I have a patch lying around here which might be quite complete...

One thing that's unclear to me though: didn't we decide to drop the uppercase
string modfiers/number suffixes/prefixes?

Also, I'm not sure what int() should do with "010".

Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
