| |
| Later: |
| - put the offending object in IOError and posix.error |
| - make module marshal work with user-defined file-like objects |
| - built-in help? |
| - hierarchical module names? |
| |
| Big plans: |
| |
| - allow separate interpreters (a la Xt's Applocation Contexts, and Tcl) |
| - great renaming |
| - complete reflexive nature of the language, e.g. have interfaces et |
| create any kind of object |
| (*) GUI interface a la Tk |

| For FAQ: |
| |
| (*) why don't strings (numbers, tuples, ...) have methods / attributes |

| |
| - check read/write allowed for file objects |
| |
| - introduce macros to set/inspect errno for syscalls, to support things |
| like getoserr() |
