[experimental] support Python 2 with fewer warts

Project description

The future module helps run Python 3.x-compatible code under Python 2.

It allows people to write clean, modern Python 3.x-compatible code today and to run it with minimal effort under Python 2 alongside a Python 2 stack that may contain dependencies that have not yet been ported to Python 3.

It is designed to be used as follows:

from __future__ import division, absolute_import, print_function from future import common_iterators, super, disable_obsolete_builtins

Eventually, we may also support this:

from future import standard_library

to bring in the new module names from the Python 3 standard library.
