Re: [Python-ideas] dir with a glob?

dir(object, "foo*")

I ask again: what would you expect (give an example) the output of this to be?

What I am asking is if the need to filter the output from dir is so common that it could warrant a change to Python?

Given that we already have ways to filter a sequence built into the language, I doubt the need for a special way to filter the output from some particular function. -- \ “I used to be a proofreader for a skywriting company.” —Steven | `\ Wright | _o__) | Ben Finney
