one of the ugliest VB-ism's. I hope you missed a ";)" after the

switch is recognized by 95% programmers or so...

switch new_syntax:
    case 'switch':
        print 'I guess I like this'
    case 'select case':
        print 'I guess I don't like this'
    case 'if/elif/else':
        print 'reminds me of spaghetti-programming'
    else:
        print 'dunno'
