Customize column spacing in the data section

[robbohn14]

Is there a way to modify the spacing of the curves in the data section?

For example, there is space leading the data in the depth curve. See attached pic.
Can I remove this space when exporting?

Also, is it possible to modify the character spacing between curves as well?
For example, there are 4 spaces between curves in the data section. Could I change it to 1?

I ask because some commercial software's get tripped-up by certain spacing.

Thank you for raising this issue @robbohn14! I have just merged some tweaks to the master branch which should achieve what you need:

import lasio
import lasio.examples

las = lasio.examples.open("sample.las")
from sys import stdout

las.write(stdout, lhs_spacer="", len_numeric_field=-1, spacer=" ")

I have re-tagged this issue with "documentation". It can be closed once an explanation of the new keyword arguments is added to the Sphinx documentation.
