[Python-Dev] Soliciting comments on the future of the cmd module (bpo-33233)

[Chris Barker - NOAA Federal]

Is bringing cmd2 into the standard library an option to be considered?

That water get included batteries and a more featurefull and supported lib.

It seems (on python-ideas) that people are often told, when they have
a suggestion for the stdlib, that they put it on pypi and see if it
gains usage, etc, and it it proves useful and popular, maybe then it
could be brought in. That seems to be the case here.

I understand that it only makes sense if the cmd2 developers want to
support it and are willing to accept the responsibilities and
restrictions that come with being in the core, but it’s worth asking.
