Good morning/afternoon!

Is there any chance of getting shellwords[1] into Python 2.3? It's very
small module with a pretty interesting functionality:

[niemeyer@localhost ..-shellwords-0.2]% python
Python 2.2.2 (#1, Apr 10 2003, 13:50:16) 
[GCC 3.2.2] on linux-ppc
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import shellwords
>>> shellwords.shellwords('arg "arg arg" arg "arg" -o="arg arg"')
['arg', 'arg arg', 'arg', 'arg', '-o=arg arg']
>>>
