My reply was brusque.  I hope you didn't find it impolite.

Your functions are neat.  Two nits: the first line of a doc string
should "stand on it own" (ideally ending in a period) because
`apropos' will return it in its output, and that the stray parens look
funky because the convention is to cram all the closing parens
together on the same line.
