# Fix Python source files to avoid using 
#	def method(self, (arg1, ..., argn)):
# instead of the more rational
#	def method(self, arg1, ..., argn):
#
# Command line arguments are files or directories to be processed.
# Directories are searched recursively for files whose name looks
# like a python module.
# Symbolic links are always ignored (except as explicit directory
# arguments).  Of course, the original file is kept as a back-up
# (with a "~" attached to its name).
# It complains about binaries (files containing null bytes)
# and about files that are ostensibly not Python files: if the first
# line starts with '#!' and does not contain the string 'python'.
#
# Changes made are reported to stdout in a diff-like format.
#
# Undoubtedly you can do this using find and sed or perl, but this is
# a nice example of Python code that recurses down a directory tree
# and uses regular expressions.  Also note several subtleties like
# preserving the file's mode and avoiding to even write a temp file
# when no changes are needed for a file.
#
# NB: by changing only the function fixline() you can turn this
# into a program for a different change to Python programs...
