> Boltons is a set of over 230 BSD-licensed, pure-Python utilities in the same spirit as — and yet conspicuously missing from — the standard library, including:

> Atomic file saving, bolted on with fileutils

> A highly-optimized OrderedMultiDict, in dictutils

> Two types of PriorityQueue, in queueutils

> Chunked and windowed iteration, in iterutils

> Recursive data structure iteration and merging, with iterutils.remap

> Exponential backoff functionality, including jitter, through iterutils.backoff

> A full-featured TracebackInfo type, for representing stack traces, in tbutils

The number of boltons is inconsistent in the description of the project, so I erred in favor of the higher number, as it would likely be more up-to-date in my reasoning.
