Ability to remove indentation from multiline strings (often triple-quoted). Differs from inspect.getdoc by not handling the first line in special manner (often a sensible approach for non-docstring multiline strings) - which should make this function more general (symmetric 'indent' also possible), and more fitting for the textwrap module. Implementation is for the most parts familiar from inspect.getdoc, though I used sring methods instead of the module 'string'. The module 'textwrap' and the function name 'dedent' were suggested on python-dev a while back (by MAL, IIRC).

Logged In: YES user_id=213488 Yes, I'll look into the patches for Doc and test - it just might take a short while (have to access anon cvs at work) - few weeks or so.
Logged In: YES user_id=213488 Ok, I've added a patch for libtextwrap.tex. You might want to take a look at it for errors, this was my first time writing latex - I just followed the style used elsewhere in the file. Writing the test case might be handled by you in a more time-efficient manner, though I can also take a look at it once I get that linux partition going on my new home machine...
