I quite like the idea of something along those lines. For example:
try:
itr = iter(obj)
except TypeError:
pass
else:
return "<iterable %s: %s>" % (obj.__class__.__name__,
<as for list contents>))
Doing this only in pprint also reduces the chances of accidentally
consuming an iterator (which was a reasonable objection when I suggested
changing the __str__ implementation on some of the standard iterators
some time ago).
Cheers,
Nick.
