Question

I’m using the new print from Python 3.x and I observed that the following code does not compile due to the end=' '.

from __future__ import print_function

import sys
if sys.hexversion < 0x02060000:
    raise Exception("py too old")

...
print("x",end=" ") # fails to compile with py24

How can I continue using the new syntax but make the script fails nicely? Is it mandatory to call another script and use only safe syntax in this one?

There are some suggestions in this question here, but it looks like it is not easily possible. You’ll have to create a wrapper script.
