0070f007f4 Change the default number of repetitions to 3, both in the Timer class
(from 10) and in main() (from 1).

Add a -v option that shows the raw times.  Repeating it cranks up the
display precision.

Always use the "best of N" form of output.

538f1d842c Implement some recommendations from Raymond H:
- Make all local variables in the template start with an underscore,
  to prevent name conflicts with the timed code.

- Added a method to print a traceback that shows source lines from the
  expanded template.

- Use that method in main().

6e31aad983 Broke down and made it work for Python 2.0 and up. (Older versions
would have required refraining from using string methods -- too
painful.)

Changed the -s option so that multiple -s options are cumulative.

5573541b6f Add a note explaining why you shouldn't try to compute mean and
standard deviation.  Also add an XXX comment wondering if we should
refrain from using itertools.repeat().
