[Guido van Rossum]

> Both these patches should be put in the masters by someone with

> Guido, this reminds me that I have an updated and improved shlex that

> at the lexical level, with proper stacking and unstacking of input sources.  
> All the user has to do is say

> 	lexer.include = "include"
> 
> or
> 
> 	lexer.include = "source"
> 
> or whatever to declare the inclusion keyword.  The token after it is

> What's the current submission process?
