MetaPython 0.2.1 has been released with hygenic macros. This works by
adding some syntax to defcode: blocks. Now defcode looks a lot more
like a function definition:
defcode result(): ...
By default, all names in the block are sanitized. If you want to NOT
sanitize something, just list it as an argument to the block. For
instance, this:
defcode result(a, ?b):
$a = 5
b = 6
c = 8
expands to this (or something very similar), assuming the name 'a'
resolves to 'foo':
foo = 5
b = 6
_mpy_0 = 8
Enjoy!
