Hi Steve (for clarity Jorgensen) Thank you for your good idea, and your enthusiasm. And I thank Guido, for suggesting a good contribution this list can make.
Here's some comments on the state of the art. In addition to https://docs.python.org/3/library/pprint.html there's also https://docs.python.org/3/library/reprlib.html and https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html I expect that these three modules have some overlap in purpose and design (but probably not in code). And if you're brave, there's also https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html and https://github.com/psf/black Time to declare a special interest. I'm a long-time user and great fan of TeX / LaTeX. And some nice way of pretty-printing Python objects using TeX notation could be useful. And also related is Geoffrey French's Larch environment for editing Python, which has a pretty-printing component. http://www.britefury.com/larch_site/ with best wishes Jonathan
