Is it OK to post small feature requests directly to this list, or is there
some other mechanism for them? What I have in mind certainly isn't worth a
PEP.
The .split method on strings splits at whitespace by default, but takes an
optional argument allowing splitting by other strings. The .strip method
(and its siblings) always strip whitespace - on more than one occasion I
would have found it useful if these methods also took an optional argument
allowing other strings to be stripped. For example, to strip, say, asterisks
from a file you could do:
>>>fred = '**word**word**'
>>>fred.strip('*')
word**word
Does this sound sensible/useful?
Cheers,
Simon Brunning.
