This is probably application-specific enough that pushing it up to stdlib won't make sense...and we'll probably want our own custom methods on it anyways.
The one that comes to mind is a regex match, or some large text match, which could be used with #11 to say "dump to the real streams if it doesnt match
/this pattern/
.
This makes sense--only reproduce/push content out to the 'real' (e.g., prior to stdio-mgr) streams if it doesn't match what I expect.
Like https://github.com/bskinn/stdio-mgr/issues/80 (Windows EOL vs Unix EOL) , the reason
.getvalue
exists is to be used in assertions. And https://github.com/bskinn/stdio-mgr/issues/80 exists because it is usually important for the precision of assertions to check most of the value, but allow some implementation/temporal/etc details to be ignored.We could leave this to an external assertion library, however there are likely some other 'easy wins', similar to EOLs, where an internal helper can provide a common need, and can be easily achieved with the stdlib, or the helpers solve our own needs.

.For implementation, this should be done after https://github.com/bskinn/stdio-mgr/issues/86 , so we have an abstract class to hang the helpers onto.
