Comment (by stumpc5):

 > Just FYI - you have reverted a python3 compatible change with this

 I am sure there are reasons for that python3 convention, but I do prefer
 simple to read code. Anyway, I can also do the other if you prefer.

 > How much additional code would it take to make it work on both sides,

 I was afraid you'd ask that. in my eyes: too much. The elements are
 considered as permutations, words, and matrices at the same time (and
 there are even two types of words, in simples and in all reflections, and
 the simple words have wired properties in the non-real case), making
 options would pollute the code just soo much, I think, and would introduce
 so many possible mistakes. I prefer to have clean and fast code, that is
 hopefully getting better than chevie, eventually. Once that is achieved, I
 am getting in favour with adding another layer of user friendliness.
