Hoi,
> gmane workaround
What drives me nuts personally is the default __repr__ of classes. (type
instances and not class instances).
Currently it looks like this::
>>> Foo
<class '__main__.Foo'>
>>> mymodule.Foo
<class 'mymodule.Foo'>
IMHO a better way is this one:
>>> Foo
Foo
>>> mymodule.Foo
mymodule.Foo
Because only classes and singletons (like True/False/None(/Ellipsis?)) have a
similar repr that's not such a big problem.
Especially for datetime this will be much more consistent then:
>>> datetime.datetime.now()
datetime.datetime(2007, 1, 10, 20, 43, 7, 52890)
>>> datetime.datetime
datetime.datetime
The advantages:
- Smaller Output when working with the CLI
- evalable (okay, that's not the best argument)
- consistent (see the datetime example)

Armin
