uTidyLib --I'm lost

[james roush]

I'm tryinh to switch from mx.tidy to uTidyLin and it isn't going well.
So far I can't even import TidyLib. Below is what I get when trying to
import into Idle. I'm using Python 2.1.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in ?
from tidylib.lib import parse, parseString
File "K:\Python21\tidylib\lib.py", line 47
yield n
^


Can someone please clue me in.

"yield" is a new keyword, related to support for generator functions.
It is supported in Python 2.2 with "from __future__ import generators"
and in 2.3 by default. Python 2.1 doesn't support the "yield" keyword.
In short, you need to upgrade your Python to use this module.

Oh. I guess it's to upgrade my Python Installation. Thanks

because yield (and generators) weren't added until python 2.2. (you'll need
to upgrade.)
