"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."
We hear you, Dave, but this is not a suitable function to add to the
standard library. Many respondents are trying to tell you that in many
different ways. If you keep arguing for it, we'll just ignore you.

Sorry to all about tmda on my dcinege-mlists email addy. It was not supposed

I personally don't think it's particularily useful, at least not in the
special case that your patch tries to address.
1) Generally, you won't only have one chara

This is not an apropriate function to add as a string methods. There
are too many conventions for quoting and too many details to get
right. One method can't possibly handle them all without an enormous
number of weird options. It's better to figure out how to do this with
regexps or use some of th

The csv data field parser handles all common usage I have encountered so far,

Very oftenmake that very very very very very very very very very often,
I find myself processing text in python that when .split()'ing a line, I'd
like to exclude the split for a 'quoted' item...quoted because it contains
