Hi,I find quite often that I'm writing things like this: raise FatalExcept( "Insufficient number of arguments specified. Exactly {0} arguments are required. See stage.bat for documentation on accepted parameters.".format( num_arguments ) ) On my display (Vertical monitor), this exceeds the width of my display, and to view the entire length of the string I am forced to pan my view left and right. Is there a special way I can format this string so that it fits nicely on the screen? Keep in mind that one important factor is that whitespace is very sensitive, and I do not want line breaks in my script file to become part of the string itself. I like how C++ handles strings, like this: char const* mystring = "This is a very long string that " "spans multiple lines and does " "not include line breaks or tabs " "from the source file between " "the strings partitions." What do you guys prefer? Thanks for reading.
