This part looks fine here (but I'm also running dapper, so it's not a
big surprise):
In [1]: for i in range(4):
...: print i,
...:
...:
0 1 2 3
In [2]: for i in range(4):
print i,
...: print i+1,
...:
...:
0 1 1 2 2 3 3 4
In [3]: for i in range(4):
print i,
print i+2,
...:
...:
0 2 1 3 2 4 3 5
Nice enhancement, BTW. Thanks, Jorgen!

In [4]: for i in \
...: range(4):
...: print i,
...:
0 1 2 3
That looks fine to me too. I'll report any problems I see, but so far
it looks like a net gain, and probably the best that can be done in a
non-curses environment. But it actually is quite functional, and is a
lot more useful than I'd initially thought.
