To allow classes to have methods that match built-in names, yet, still
disallow them outside of defclass, keep an internal state whether
builtins are allowed in the current context.
By default, this is false. But defclass will set it to True when it
compiles its body, and set it back to the previous value when it's done
with that. We need to set back to the previous value to allow nested
defclasses to work properly.
This closes#783.

Strip the \ufdd0 prefix from the keyword argument before turning it into
a string: the same representation the user entered looks better, and is
printable too, thus Python2 doesn't choke on it.

Some valid-looking list comprehensions, such as (genexpr x []) can crash
Python 2.7. The AST we generate from these cannot be expressed in
Python, but were valid in Hy.
Added two guards to guard against this, so we raise an error instead of
crashing Python.
Closes#572, #591 and #634.

When trying to setv a callable, raise an error instead of showing the
user an incredibly ugly backtrace. Closes#532.

In case for doesn't get a body, raise the appropriate, descriptive error
instead of an IndexOutOfBounds one. Also updated the failing test case.

Much like how `can_compile` returns the compilation result, which some
tests make use of, it may be useful for for `cant_compile` to return the
exception object that it caught, for more specific assertions.
jcrocholl/pep8 (used by flake8, used in Hy's continuous integration
builds) introduced an imports-at-top-of-file check in 1.6.0 and a
line-breaks-around-binary-operators check in 1.6.2. This commit makes
nonfunctional changes to bring the Hy codebase in compliance with this
tool, fixing #764.
This also breaks out the PY3 only tests into their own file. We need to do this because raise from is a syntax error in PY2, so we can't rely on the previous hack of catching a HyCompileError - it would compile fine through Hy and then be a syntax error in Python.
This version is much simpler.
At the point that the exception is raised, we don't have access to
the actual source, just the current expression. but as the
exception percolates up, we can intercept it, add the source and
the re-raise it.
Then at the final point, in the cmdline handler, we can choose to
let the entire traceback print, or just the simpler, direct error
message.
And even with the full traceback, the last bit is nicely formatted
just like the shorter, simpler message.
The error message is colored if clint is installed, but to avoid
yet another dependency, you get monochrome without clint.
I'm sure there is a better way to do the markup, the current method
is kludgy but works.
I wish there was more shared code between HyTypeError and LexException
but they are kind of different in some fundamental ways.
This doesn't work (yet) with runtime errors generated from Python,
like NameError, but I have a method that can catch NameError and turn it
into a more pleasing output.
Finally, there is no obvious way to raise HyTypeError from pure Hy code,
so methods in core/language.hy throw ugly TypeError/ValueError.
When calling get with more than two arguments, treat the rest as indexes
into the expression from the former. That is, (get foo "bar" "baz")
would translate to foo["bar"]["baz"], and so on.
This fixes#362.

A macro is available in the module where it was defined and
in any module that does a require of the defining module.
Only macros defined in hy.core are globally available.
Fixes#181
