Hi
but I called it OOB text for 'out-of-band' text. I use it mainly for xterm escape codes.
I would have thought the term zeroText more accurately signifies the meaning, partly because out-of-band isn't such a commonly known phrase. If anyone can suggest anything better than zeroText, then I'm happy to hear it.
I actually like Daan's pretty printer much more than the hughespj one, I find it easier to get the layout I want and clearer in general.
I don't particularly like the hughespj, but its the one that made it into the base library. It's probably also a good candidate for coming out of the base library at some point, but thats an entirely different discussion!
would there be interest is something like DocLike in the main libraries?
I would have thought a good pretty printer library with all the various implementations and a DocLike would be nice. Not sure it belongs in the main library though - I see pretty printing more like parsing, an addon to the standard libraries. Thanks Neil
