One thing I think could be useful is to port Haskell's curry and
uncurry. This is basically a convenience method for (un)wrapping an
.apply on a function object:
function curry(f) {
return function () {
// first convert arguments to a regular array
var args =

Hi everyone,
I've just finished committing one of my planned additions to MochiKit
1.5 -- a new MochiKit.Text module:

It basically provides some of the text formatting stuff discussed here
on the list previously. With some random string

That's not such a bad method :) However, I feel
I think, for functional programming, we should keep things simple.
It's better to keep code simple and readable. Can you explain few more
use cases of the proposed functions?

It's very good addition :) especially the new formating functions.
I'll improve my MochiKit.String module so that one can create String
instance with the new formating patterns.
Again, I'm too, agree with Arner. Try to follow Python conventions as
much as possible.

To me (and probably other non-Haskell users) the names imply the same
thing as bind or partial. It's a confusing world... :-(
