That was the *intent*, yes.  You should double-check that!  IIRC, somebody
was guessing at the characters Zope allowed from staring at a laptop while
somebody else scribbled them on the board ...

Well, they're not Python builtins, so perhaps "standard" is a better name
after all.  IIRC, it started life as "std" (perhaps in analogy w/ C++), but
then there was a general NO MORE STINKING ABBREVIATIONS backlash.  I liked
"std" myself <0.9 wink>.
