[Python-Dev] using ":name" in ParseTuple()

[Greg Stein]

If anyone out there is looking for some straight-forward changes to help
with Python development, then here is a chance...

I'll get around to submitting patches for this, but it would be much
later. So, if somebody can beat me to it...

Cheers,

Ah, darn.  I tried ";message" but it's inferior; I'd forgotten about
":name".  Yes, that should be standard...  Patches, please?
