http://docs.python.org/reference/compound_stmts.html#with This documentation refers to "context expressions" in two places. However, it never really defines what a context expression is. The formal syntax that's presented is this: with_stmt ::= "with" with_item ("," with_item)* ":" suite with_item ::= expression ["as" target] As best I can tell, the context expression is essentially the with_item. If that's the case, I propose one of the following: 1) The formal syntax is changed so that "with_item" becomes "context_expression". 2) References to "context expression" change to "with item". 3) The "context expression" is defined to be the with_item in the formal syntax at some point in the documentation. |

Actually, the with_item contains the context expression *and* the optional "as target" clause, so they are not equivalent I committed a clarification in r84482. |
