[Python-Dev] chomp()?

Guido van Rossum writes:

Someone just posted a patch to implement s.chomp() as a string method: I.e. it removes a trailing \r\n, \r, or \n.

Any comments? Is this needed given that we have s.rstrip() already?

-1 from me. P=NP (Python is not Perl). "Chomp" is an excessively cute name. And like you said, this is too much like "rstrip" to merit a separate method.
