Hi-

I'm new to exceptions in Python, and I am stuck because
I want a continue inside a try statement.  I read FAQ
6.28 that says this is broken.  Does anyone have a
work-around for this?

The only thing I could do is a "special" exception:

...some loop...

try:
  raise 'continue'
  print "skip this"
except 'continue':   # do my continue
  continue
except:              # for all "real" errors
  pass

Thank you very much!

-Guy
