Leonard, that you for the patch, in particular, the list of hints. I think the first is good but overly specific. It also has an extra '.itertools' in the path. Now: ''' + - To concatenate a list of lists ``lol`` use ``list(itertools.chain.from_iterable(lol))`` + (see :func:`from_iterable <itertools.itertools.chain.from_iterable>`). ''' How about instead" ''' + - To concatenate an iterable of iterables, such as a list of lists, + see :func:`from_iterable <itertools.chain.from_iterable>` + and call the appropriate constructor on the result, such as :class: `list`. ''' ?
