Function: python-skeleton-while

python-skeleton-while is an interactive and byte-compiled function defined in python.el.gz.

Signature

(python-skeleton-while &optional STR ARG)

Documentation

Insert while statement.

This is a skeleton command (see skeleton-insert). Normally the skeleton text is inserted at point, with nothing "inside". If there is a highlighted region, the skeleton text is wrapped around the region text.

A prefix argument ARG says to wrap the skeleton around the next ARG words. A prefix argument of -1 says to wrap around region, even if not highlighted. A prefix argument of zero says to wrap around zero words---that is, nothing. This is a way of overriding the use of a highlighted region.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 24.3.
