15 """A callable class that calls a method passed as a parameter.
17 Good for creating a pseudo keyword in the python runtime
18 environment. The keyword is really an object that has a repr()
19 that calls itself which calls the method that was passed in the
20 init of the object. All this just to avoid having to type in the
21 closing parens on a method. So, for example:
23 >>> quit = PseudoKeyword(SomeObject.someMethod)
26 SomeObject.someMethod gets executed as if it had been called
27 directly and the user didn't have to type the parens, like
28 'quit()'. This technique is most applicable for pseudo keywords
29 like quit, exit and help.
31 If SomeObject.someMethod can take parameters, they can still be
32 passed by using the keyword in the traditional way with parens."""
