Mmh, I see what you mean.
I wasn't aware of this textwrap, but what immediately comes to mind is
that we'd end up mixing spaces (python indentation) and tabs (C
indentation).
While textwrap may handle the case, it doesn't look too readable to me.
I'd say we can (slowly) transition to using textwrap here but mandate
having \t for tabs to make them explicit (didn't test).
What do you think?
Thanks,
Gabriele
