Subject: 25.3;
 New Python3.6 f-string syntax highlighting support (feature request)
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2018 23:09:36 +1100
In python 3.6, code can be evaluated in a string, called an f-string,
see: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0498/

It would be nice if python-mode would not syntax highlight the code in
the f-string as a string, and instead use regular syntax highlighting.

eg:

    print(f'Test {} me!'.format(2 + 2))

can be written as:

    print(f'Test {2 + 2} me!')

I noticed php-mode (which had something like this for many years)
does for for PHP's strings, eg: "Test {$2 + 2} me!"

----

It was recommended I send in a feature request:
see: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/39283

Thanks

I just pushed a change to the `master` branch of Emacs which should
do that.
