Hi Nick
This is for a new version of pydoc if I can get the class attributes sorted

The original pydoc did this a somewhat round about way, so I would like to

I think I will use strings as you suggest, and verify they are valid so a type

I ended up using string based option list. I agree a space separated string is

Fixed...
Changed the collate() function to return None the same as sort() since it is an
in place collate.
A comment in _test() doctests was reversed. CAPS_FIRST option puts words
beginning with capitals before, not after, words beginning with lower case of
the same letter.
It seems I alw
ed this in *anything* yet, so don't plug it into production code
of any type. I also haven't done any performance testing.
See the doc tests below for examples of how it's used.

Most examples of sorting usually sort on the ord() order of the character set

an approximation. But that is not always what you want.
