<% for .... %> <% endfor %> Syntax

[Calvin Young]

I just stumbled upon this post on Hacker News, in which one user suggests writing a "for" loop using this syntax: <% for r in rows %> ${r.name} <% endfor %>

Seeing has how this post is over 3 years old, is this just the old Mako syntax?  Is there any way to enable it in the latest version of Mako?  I find it much more readable, so it'd be great to be able to use it.

that syntax is not correct.

the "for" block is via the % for / %endfor pair.

If you want a "for" all on one line, the best you can do is a list/generator comprehension:

${" ".join(r.name for r in rows)}
