Howdy!

It is my pleasure to announce an updated release of marrow.util, a package combining many commonly re-implemented utility functions, classes, and compatibility code used extensively by the marrow package suite and others.

The updated package is available from PyPi:

	http://pypi.python.org/pypi/marrow.util

Prepared eggs are available for Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.1; a source tarball has been included as well.

The following is an overview of the many utilities provided.

marrow.util.bunch:

 * Bunch - attribute access dictionary.
 * MultiBunch - as per Bunch + allowing multiple values per key.

marrow.util.compat:

 * formatdate - consistent import for Py2K + 3K.
 * unquote - consistent unquote_plus import and 3K bytes conversion.
 * range / xrange - Py2K xrange / 3K range consistent imports.
 * execfile - Py3K implementation and consistent import.
 * exception - a version-agnostic method of exception handling.
 * binary / unicode - consistent imports for str/bytes and unicode/str.
 * bytestring - ensure a string is a bytestring.
 * native - ensure a string is native (bytes on 2K, unicode on 3K).
 * uvalues - decode each value of an iterable with advanced error handling.
 * IO - StringIO/cStringIO/BytesIO consistent import.
 * parse_qsl - consistent import.

marrow.util.convert:

 * boolean - convert common string representations into booleans.
 * array - powerful string to list conversions.
 * KeywordProcessor - powerful bidirectional string to rich datatype conversion.
 * tags - a KeywordProcessor for processing space-separated tag sets.
 * terms - a KeywordProcessor for processing demarked search terms (+foo -bar).

marrow.util.escape:

 * unescape - ANSI color code, object property, and pronoun substitution.

marrow.util.events:

 * WaitableEvent - an asynchronous event trigger.

marrow.util.insensitive:

 * CaseInsensitiveDict - the name is descriptive.

marrow.util.object:

 * flatten - recursive iterable flattening.
 * yield_property - a generator which returns a named property from all elements in a sequence.
 * yield_keyvalue - a generator which returns a named item from all elements in a sequence.
 * NoDefault - a useful placeholder singleton for optional keyword arguments.
 * merge - merge two dictionaries.
 * load_object - dot-colon notation string to object resolver.
 * Cache - a simple LRU cache implementation.
 * LoggingFile - a file-like object wrapper around Python logging.
 * CounterMeta - serialized instance creation metaclass.
 * getargspec - a comprehensive argspec inspector.

marrow.util.path:

 * Path - an enhanced deque implementation for manipulating URL paths.

marrow.util.patterns:

 * Borg - a very light-weight borg superclass or mix-in.

marrow.util.pipe:

 * Pipe - a cross-platform TCP-based pipe implementation.
 * pipe - consistent import for platform-aware (Windows-compat) pipe creation.

marrow.util.text:

 * normalize - determine the best unique name for a new item in a sequence.
 * ellipsis - truncate text and add an ellipsis.
 * wrap - wrapping of English text.
 * rewrap - combined unwrapping and wrapping of English text.

marrow.util.time:

 * UTC - a simple concrete UTC implementation.
 * delta_to_seconds - timedelta to seconds conversion.
 * day, week, hour, minute, second, month, year - timedelta constants.
 * minute_range, hour_range, dom_range, month_range, dow_range -
   2-tuple range constants.
 * map_month, map_dow - map strings to integers.

	— Alice.


	— Alice.
