That's why I suggested it could possibly live in `boltons` (that already contains a lot of other simple functions that aren't in the stdlib) or in `arek_utils` (which I haven't described except implicitly as a collection of "a bunch of useful things"). Tim argues that this functionality is even too simple for inclusion in boltons; that might be true. But either way, it's not a huge burden in the interactive console to type a first line of `from my_utils import *` before getting down to work. -- Keeping medicines from the bloodstreams of the sick; food from the bellies of the hungry; books from the hands of the uneducated; technology from the underdeveloped; and putting advocates of freedom in prisons.
