Actually, no.  But it's still not what I'm looking for.  It's just that 
I'm used to languages where I can put my code on multiple easily to make 
lines shorter.  As John pointed, it's possible to add () to print.  I 
just discovered that it can be done with return also.  I wonder how to 
remove the need for \ in that example:

     parser.StartElementHandler = \
         lambda name, attrs: \
             GenericParser.handleElementStart(self, name, attrs)
