Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv13720/Lib

Modified Files:
	StringIO.py 
Log Message:
SF patch #907403:  Improvements to cStringIO.writelines()

The writelines() method now accepts any iterable argument and writes
the lines one at a time rather than using ''.join(lines) followed by
a single write.  Results in considerable memory savings and makes
the method suitable for use with generator expressions.
