print9

An upgraded, drop-in replacement for Python's print.

• New functionalities: wrap, color.
• Fully compatible with all existing print() kwargs (sep, end, file, flush).

Installation

pip install print9

Quick start

from print9 import print9

# Use both wrap and color
print9("Hello, world!", wrap=80, color="blue")

New Parameters

• wrap: Optional[int]
  • Max line width to wrap each object's text.
  • If None or <= 0, wrapping is disabled.
  • Example: wrap=40 wraps long lines at 40 characters.
• color: Optional[str]
  • Color for each object's text.
  • Accepts predefined names or a custom ANSI escape code.
  • If None, no color is applied.

Predefined color names

black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, white, orange, purple, pink, brown, gray.

Examples

from print9 import print9

# Wrap long text
long_text = """
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
""".strip()

print9(long_text, wrap=50)

# Use a predefined color
print9("Success!", color="green")

# Use a custom ANSI color (e.g., bright blue)
print9("Custom color", color="\x1b[94m")

# Combine multiple objects and forward kwargs to print()
print9("A", "B", "C", wrap=None, color=None, sep=" | ", end="\n\n")

Notes

• Wrapping applies per object after converting it to a string.
• Coloring wraps each object's text with the chosen color and a reset code.
• All other keyword arguments are passed directly to Python's built-in print().
