I have this function:

     stderr.write(str(obj)+"\n")

and I'd like to rewrite it to take a variable number of objects.
Something like this:

def write_err(*objs):
     from sys import stderr
     stderr.write(" ".join(objs)+"\n")

but I lose the property that the function works on any object.

No you don't. If you were happy with printing the str(...) of a single objects, why not just printout the (concatenation) of the str(...) of each of many objects?

stderr.write(" ".join([str(b) for b in objs])+"\n")

What's
the simplest way to fix this? In essence, I need to cast a list of
objects to a list of strings. I'd like to do just "str(objs)" but that
(obviously) doesn't quite do what I need.
