Yeah, but I think we should only complain about comparisons to bool that use the literals (as opposed to "if x == y" where either x or y happens to be a bool). A run-time warning can't really do that. > Come to think of it, getting PyChecker integrated w/ the interactive > shell would be great! Hard, I suspect, but great! Certainly better than running tabnanny. :-) I'm not even sure how hard it would be to add this to IDLE -- pychecker is already a module. Maybe Neal will enjoy this challenge? --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
