For the above, and presuming the initial newline is not meant, I would use:


---------------------------------------------------------------------->
def something():

    thisLooksBadInSource = ("""\
Name: %(name)s
age: %(age)s
"""
                            % vars())
----------------------------------------------------------------------<


It took a bit of time, but I learned to appreciate this as NotSoBad! :-)
