from python1.5.2 to pytghon2.2.2

[Alberto Mantovani]

Hi,
I have a lot of scripts written in python1.5.2 that I have to bring in
python2.2.2 , someone could give me some informations about the sintax
differences between the two versions?.
Are there some tools that can do this automatically?

thanks

Alberto

It's probably adequate to read in detail each of the What's New? pages
at http://www.amk.ca/python/ .

Most of the changes have been *additions* that do not change the
behavior of older scripts. It it quite possible that your 1.5.2
scripts will run fine in current interpreters. One way to find out it
to run them with whatever test setups you have.

The syntax is the same, except for a new keyword (maybe two). The
_semantics_ have changed somewhat and lots of new features (library
stuff) is included.

See AMK's "What's New" write-ups on python.org for the details.
