Subject: Remove all mentions of the strop module -- it has been pronounced
 Evil. (The string "strop" is found in the rexec documentation, but that
 should not be changed until strop is actually removed or rexec no longer
 allows it.)

-This module is implemented in Python.  Much of its functionality has
-been reimplemented in the built-in module
-\module{strop}\refbimodindex{strop}.  However, you

-After initialization, there is \emph{no} overhead in using
-\module{string} instead of \module{strop}.
