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)
-----
Apply only [attachment:trac_11775-pretty_print_multiple_args.4.patch] to
`SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage`.
