[Python-Dev] proposal: evaluated string

[tomer filiba]

just like r"" does the escaping for you.
but estr types must be implemented so the evaluate with the current scope
(locals and globals),
not the score they were defined it, so unless you want to do nasty tricks
with sys._getframe,
which doesn't work on all implementations of python, you'll need it as a
builtin
