Perhaps not so surprising, but I don't agree on this. Since we are working with JavaScript here, I think we should first and foremost follow existing JavaScript conventions. Using camelCase naming is very much one of those (see the minimal built-in library and objects). Python names are not automatically the best choice for people without a strong background in Python. Some of us have other biases, being more accustomed to Java or whatever. > See `MochiKit.String.splitlines`, you can remove `splitJoin` as you > one can easily do the same with `splitlines` (if it's all about > triming newline chars). I actually removed my own stripLines to replace it with splitJoin... :-) The thing I realized, was that a stripLines() function also implied the rstripLines() and lstripLines() functions. So instead I tried to generalize it to a more generic form of map for strings. It is an experimental API for sure, but I was curious if it could be useful for more things. It is, after all, a version of map()... But this is no darling API of mine. I've registered your vote in disfavor. Any other opinions?
