# This is a simple little module I wrote to make life easier. I didn't
# see anything quite like it in the library, though I may have overlooked
# something. I wrote this when I was trying to read some heavily nested
# tuples with fairly non-descriptive content. This is modeled very much
# after Lisp/Scheme - style pretty-printing of lists. If you find it
# useful, thank small children who sleep at night.
"""Support to pretty-print lists, tuples, & dictionaries recursively.
Very simple, but useful, especially in debugging data structures.
Classes
-------
PrettyPrinter()
Handle pretty-printing operations onto a stream using a configured
set of formatting parameters.
Functions
---------
pformat()
Format a Python object into a pretty-printed representation.
pprint()
Pretty-print a Python object to a stream [default is sys.stdout].
saferepr()
Generate a 'standard' repr()-like value, but protect against recursive
data structures.
