Hmmmm...better then mine at least.

import sys sys.formatresult = str

And where does the "don't print if it's None" enter? I doubt if there is a really good way to divide functionality. OF course, specific IDEs may provide their own hooks.

You're right! But a default is easy enough to add.

I'd put it in sys instead of builtin though.

Hmmm.. that's a Guido Issue(TM). Guido?
