This patch add iterator classes for str and unicode, as discussed here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2006-July/002650.html

This looks good, but needs new tests.

Code coverage is pretty good without any new tests (see <http://styx.livinglogic.de/~walter/python/unicodeobject.c.gcov>) The only function uncovered is unicodeiter_len (striter_len). I've added a test for this to the new version of the patch (diff2.txt). File Added: diff2.txt

Patch applies cleanly and works as expected (str.__iter__, unicode.__iter__) and all tests pass.

What is the point of this patch for Py2.6? There is nothing broken here. Not every sequence needs it's own __iter__. That is provided automatically. I intentionally left-out strings from when I added __iter__ to tuples, lists, and dicts. There was no compelling speed benefit as there was for the other objects.

Raymond, can this entry be closed? In py3k PyString and PyUnicode have an iterator view.
