+A class which presents the reverse of a sequence without duplicating it.
+From: "Steven D. Majewski" <sdm7g@elvis.med.virginia.edu>
+
+It works on mutable or inmutable sequences.
+
+>>> chars = list(Rev('Hello World!'))
+>>> print ''.join(chars)
+!dlroW olleH
+
+The .forw is so you can use anonymous sequences in __init__, and still
+keep a reference the forward sequence. )
+If you give it a non-anonymous mutable sequence, the reverse sequence
+will track the updated values. ( but not reassignment! - another
+good reason to use anonymous values in creating the sequence to avoid
+confusion. Maybe it should be change to copy input sequence to break
+the connection completely ? )
+
+>>> nnn = range(3)
+>>> rnn = Rev(nnn)
+>>> for n in rnn: print n
+...
+2
+1
+0
+>>> for n in range(4, 6): nnn.append(n)   # update nnn
+...
+>>> for n in rnn: print n     # prints reversed updated values
+...

+>>> nnn = nnn[1:-1]

+[1, 2, 4]
+>>> for n in rnn: print n     # prints reversed values of old nnn
