I think it's best to have two builtins:

print(*args, **kws) printf(fmt, *args, **kws) I would also /require/ that any behavior changing keyword arguments /not/ be magically inferred from the positional arguments. So you'd have to explicitly spell 'nl=False' or "stream=fp" if that's what you wanted.

Good improvements.
