array repr

[Andrew MacKeith]

I would like to use the built-in array_repr in numpy, because
I need a fast repr that does not contain new line characters.
I see no way of doing this without editing the code in numeric.py,
and I hate to edit other people's libraries.

from numpy import array
causes numeric.py to be executed, which includes a call to
multiarray.set_string_function(array_repr, 1)

If I want to "undo" this, there is no way of doing it.

I would like to unset the repr with:
numpy.set_string_function(None, 1)
but this raises a TypeError because None is not callable.

This behavior was the same in Numeric, and in that case I edited the
code in Numeric.py but it would be nice if I didn't have to do that.

Should I submit a patch for this?
