The command ``2to3 +-l`` lists them. As :ref:`documented above <2to3-using>`, each can be turned on +and off individually. They are described here in more detail. + + +.. 2to3fixer:: apply + + Removes usage of :func:`apply`. For example ``apply(function, *args, + **kwargs)`` is converted to ``function(*args, **kwargs)``. + +.. 2to3fixer:: basestring + + Converts :class:`basestring` to :class:`str`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: buffer + + Converts :class:`buffer` to :class:`memoryview`. This fixer is optional + because the :class:`memoryview` API is similar but not exactly the same as + that of :class:`buffer`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: callable + + Converts ``callable(x)`` to ``hasattr(x, "__call_")``. + +.. 2to3fixer:: dict + + Fixes dictionary iteration methods. :meth:`dict.iteritems` is converted to + :meth:`dict.items`, :meth:`dict.iterkeys` to :meth:`dict.keys`, and + :meth:`dict.itervalues` to :meth:`dict.values`.

Type comparisions like ``type(x) is SomeClass`` and + ``type(x) == SomeClass`` are converted to ``isinstance(x, SomeClass)``. + ``while 1`` becomes ``while True``. This fixer also tries to make use of + :func:`sorted` in appropiate places.

Imports of :func:`itertools.ifilterfalse` are also + changed to :func:`itertools.filterfalse`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: itertools + + Changes usage of :func:`itertools.ifilter`, :func:`itertools.izip`, and + :func:`itertools.imap` to their builtin equivalents. + :func:`itertools.ifilterfalse` is changed to :func:`itertools.filterfalse`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: long + + Strips the ``L`` prefix on long literals and renames :class:`long` to + :class:`int`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: map + + Wraps :func:`map` in a :class:`list` call. It also changes ``map(None, x)`` + to ``list(x)``. Using ``from future_builtins import map`` disables this + fixer. + +.. 2to3fixer:: metaclass + + Converts the old metaclass syntax (``__metaclass__ = Meta`` in the class + body) to the new (``class X(metaclass=Meta)``). + +.. 2to3fixer:: methodattrs + + Fixes old method attribute names. For example, ``meth.im_func`` is converted + to ``meth.__func__``. + +.. 2to3fixer:: ne + + Converts the old not-equal syntax, ``<>``, to ``!=``. + +.. 2to3fixer:: next + + Converts the use of iterator's :meth:`next` methods to the :func:`next` + function.

If ``E`` is a tuple, the translation will be + incorrect because substituting tuples for exceptions has been removed in 3.0. + +.. 2to3fixer:: raw_input + + Converts :func:`raw_input` to :func:`input`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: reduce + + Handles the move of :func:`reduce` to :func:`functools.reduce`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: renames + + Changes :data:`sys.maxint` to :data:`sys.maxsize`. + +.. 2to3fixer:: repr + + Replaces backtick repr with the :func:`repr` function. + +.. 2to3fixer:: set_literal + + Replaces use of the :class:`set` constructor with set literals.
