My deeply biased and very personal ideology her e is if how emacs
handles it.  Granted it is not the best representer of python style.
For my 2 pence worth, if the google style somehow replicates the emacs
representation of Python code, all the better.  OTOH I'm not sure if
any GNU standards represent Python at all.  Certainley the
libstdc++ printers are a little liberal wtih Python styles.

Cheers

Phil
