New submission from Nick Coghlan <[email protected]>:
As far I am aware, the simplest way to indent a multi-line string is with the
following snippet:
'\n'.join((4 * ' ') + x for x in s.splitlines())
It would be a lot simpler and clearer if I could just write that as
"textwrap.indent(s, 4 * ' ')".
(i.e. indent would accept a prefix string to be inserted before each line in
the supplied string, as in the original comprehension)
