iterating in reverse

You mean kinda like (untested):

l = map(lambda c: c, s)
l.reverse()
i = 0
ret = ''
for ch in l:
    if i and not i % 3:
        ret = ',' + ret 
    ret = ch + ret
    i += 1

Don't need a second reverse, but it doesn't help much. Maybe it's too
much cold symptom suppressor (or not enough?), but this is making me
feel stupid (more so than usual).
