The Steering Council is also pretty adamantly against adding a new bchr() built-in.
FYI the PEP still mentions `bchr`. -Brett
bytes.byte() name is similar to bytes.getbyte(). I cannot find "int" in the name of other bytes methods. .byte() seems fine to me too. I’m not a fan of smushedwords but .fromint() seemed better than .fromord(). -Barry
