Guido: > I propose to skip printing the newline when it follows a newline > that came from data. -1 There's too much magic in the way print handles spaces and newlines already. Making it even more magical and inconsistent seems like exactly the wrong direction to be going in. If there are to be any changes to the way print works, I would prefer to see one that removes the need for the softspace flag altogether. The behaviour of a given print should not depend on state left behind by some previous one. Neither should it depend on whether the characters being printed come directly from a string or not.
