Can you use "apply" to pass keywords? If so, what is the syntax?
ie:
Python 1.5.2 (#4, Sep 5 2000, 10:29:12) [C] on irix646
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> def foo( bar = None ):
... if bar != None:
... print 'ok'
... else:
... print 'not ok'
...
>>> apply( foo, [bar = 1] )
File "<stdin>", line 1
apply( foo, [bar = 1] )
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> apply( foo, bar = 1 )
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: this function takes no keyword arguments
>>> apply(foo, (bar = 1) )
File "<stdin>", line 1
apply(foo, (bar = 1) )
