Re: [Python-ideas] Proposal to add new built-in struct (was: Add kwargs to built-in function object)

This is a proposal to add a new built-in named struct:

struct(**kwargs) Return a struct object which has the attributes given in kwargs.

I think I'd prefer 'record', to avoid any potential confusion with the struct module, which does something quite different. Also, my Pascal background makes the term 'record' seem more high-level and therefore Pythonic to me. -- Greg
