[issue36906] Compile time textwrap.dedent() equivalent for str or bytes literals

[Marco Sulla]

Marco Sulla <launchpad....@marco.sulla.e4ward.com> added the comment:

Anyway there's something strange in string escaping and `inspect.cleandoc()`:

>>> a = """
... \nciao
...     bello
... \ ciao
... """
>>> print(inspect.cleandoc(a))
ciao
    bello
\ ciao
>>> print("\ ciao")
\ ciao

I expected:

>>> print(inspect.cleandoc(a))

ciao
bello
 ciao
>>> print("\ ciao")
 ciao
