kwargs = keyword arguments
It's a common naming convention in python, as exemplified in
matplotlib.
That was meant more as a rhetorical question rather than a real
one.
Yes, I guessed the meaning by the surrounding context but
nevertheless it was a major WAT while skimming the post. Also,
Who the fuck cares whats common in Python? I was reading and
replying on the *D* NG, was I not?
Kwarg seems a reasonable name, consistent with a pre-existing
convention. Please suggest a better alternative if you have one.
I must admit I'm bemused by your level of aggression over what
appears to be a trivial matter.
