      Pytools is a big bag of things that are "missing" from the Python standard
      library. This is mainly a dependency of my other software packages, and is
      probably of little interest to you unless you use those. If you're curious
      nonetheless, here's what's on offer:

      * A ton of small tool functions such as `len_iterable`, `argmin`, 
        tuple generation, permutation generation, ASCII table pretty printing,
        GvR's mokeypatch_xxx() hack, the elusive `flatten`, and much more.
      * Michele Simionato's decorator module
      * A time-series logging module, `pytools.log`.
      * Batch job submission, `pytools.batchjob`.
      * A lexer, `pytools.lex`.
