Description: 
        I/O ToolKit (IOTk)
        ==================
        IOTk is a set of functions that make it easy to display output and get input
        from the command line.
        
        Input Functions
        ---------------
        ``ask_string``
        Gets a string value from the user.
        ``ask_int``
        Asks the user for a value and makes sure that it's an integer.
        ``ask_yes_no``
        Checks for "yes" or "no" against 8 languages, plus plain old "y" and "n".
        ``ask_filename``
        Asks the user for a filename, then verifies that it exists.
        ``ask_folder``
        Asks the user for a folder name, then verifies that it exists.
        ``ask_regex``
        Gets a string from the user and verifies it against a regular expression.
        It can be supplied a custom invalidation message so the user doesn't see
        "Must match the regular expression: " followed by a bunch of apparently
        random characters and stop using your program out of frustration.
        
        
        Output Functions
        ----------------
        ``get_columns``
        If the ``COLUMNS`` environment variable is set, this will take it. If not,
        it assumes 80.
        ``print_dict``
        Prints the keys and values in a dictionary, with incredibly flexible
        formatting options.
        ``print_list``
        Prints the items in a list, with the same formatting options as
        ``print_dict``.
        ``wrap_str``
        A powerful word-wrapping function that will wrap words to a certain number
        of columns.
        ``print_string``
        A thick wrapper around ``wrap_str`` that provides alignment and fill
        options.
        ``print_header``
        Writes a line of text and underlines it.
        ``trim_docstring``
        The famous implementation from PEP 257, this will strip leading whitespace
        from a docstring.
