[Python-3000] Adding format to object (original) (raw)

As part of implementing PEP 3101, I need to add format to object, to achieve the equivalent of:

class object: def format(self, format_spec): return format(str(self), format_spec)

I've added format to int, unicode, etc., but I can't figure out where or how to add it to object.

Any pointers are appreciated. Something as simple as "look at foo.c" or "grep for baz" would be good enough.

Thanks! Eric.
