Should actually be 'pretty-printing', rather that 'pretty-print'. This is  
a commonly used expression whse precise meaning depends on the context and 
implementation

I just ran a Google search for "pretty-printing" and came up with references 
to pretty-printing in Lisp, C, XML, and many other. See for example 
http://www-inf.enst.fr/~demaille/a2ps/doc-4.12/a2ps_7.html  and
