New description:

 The pretty_print function currently takes only one argument. This somehow
 makes it difficult to print multiple things in one line, for instance the
 following is currently not possible:
 {{{
 A = identity_matrix(2); pretty_print("A = ", A)
 }}}
 with the output being "A = <the matrix A on the same line>"

 I am attaching a patch which allows pretty_print to take in multiple
 arguments. It is based on some code by _leif @ #sagemath (See
 http://sagenb.org/home/pub/3111/ ). Also kini @ #sagemath helped in
 passing the doctests.

 The modifications are to 1) the function pretty_print 2) the doctests in
 pretty_print 3) the doctest in pretty_print_default (whitespace issues)

 1. If you apply only this ticket by itself, then apply
 [attachment:trac_11775-pretty_print_multiple_args.3.patch] to the
 `SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage`.
 2. If you have applied #12156 first then apply
 [attachment:trac_11775-pretty_print_multiple_args.4.patch] to
 `SAGE_ROOT/deve/sage`.

Comment:

 Thanks for opening #12156. This takes care of the issue of printing latex
 strings. I am uploaded a version 4 of the patch which is rebased to
 #12156. You may decide to merge either version 3 or version 4 depending on
 which ticket is applied first.
