I am happy with how the python starts up. When I use
python
I get python 2.
I am ok with using py -3 for my new scripts, even using the shebang like
#!py -3
I don't want to put a unix (or for that matter windows) path in the shebang, as
it is not platform portable
But the real question/s for me i

Why inefficient? I think that readlines() will be much slower, not
only more time c

I don't know in Python, but maybe you can create a script that writes
on a named pipe and read it from Python?

It's not clear there is a straightforward way to catch a signal or get
an event notification when my computer (Dell running XUbuntu 20.04) is
about to sleep or when it's just awakened. The app uses tkinter. Is
there some more-or-less easy way to do this? Mac support would be nice
(I have my eye on
"return true iff this".
I like this.

What about introducing a method for text streams that reads the lines
from the bottom? Java has also a ReversedLinesFileReader with Apache
Commons IO.

Given what you added, Michael, your function is part of a larger collection of
functions and being compatible with the others is a valid consideration.
Whatever you decide, would ideally be done consistently with all or most of
them.
And, of course, it others in the collection also can handle mu
