printing something without a newline OR a space after it?

Very very simple problem here, can't find out how to do it...

I want to print something without a new line after it, so I can later output
something right after it on the same line.

If I do:

print "stuff here",
print "more"

... it doesn't output a newline, but it does output a space:

stuff here, more

... whereas I want no newline and no space:
stuff here,more

How is this done?

thanks

import sys
sys.stdout.writ e( 'stuff here' )
sys.stdout.writ e( 'more' )

Just "write" to your file. For stdout (equiv of print), you can use:

def msg(txt):
sys.stdout.writ e(txt)
sys.stdout.flus h() #to see results immediately
Thus:
msg('stuff here,')
msg('more\n')

If you don't care about flushing, try:
out=sys.stdout. write
out('stuff here,')
out('more\n')

Hi there. I hope this isn't a stupid question to ask, but does anyone know how to print out a string without moving to a new line each time and simply updating the first line. An example would be, if I wanted to have a percentage progress counter that was constantly updating. I'm unsure how to do this without printing to a brand new line. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Daniel

Why can't we have an additional 'print' statement, that behaves exactly like 'print' but doesn't insert that damn blank between two arguments? Could be called 'printn' or 'prin1' or 'prinn' anything similar you like. Would make my life so much easier. Often I start with a nice and short print statement, then there happen to be more arguments and neat formatting becomes more important and as a result I find myself

Has anyone come across a decent algorithm for implementing word wrap features in .net printing? I have a small component that uses basic printing techniques (i.e. e.Graphics.DrawString in a PrintPage event of a PrintDocument object) to send some formatted text to the printer. However, if the lines are too long they run off the page rather than wrapping around. I'm sure I can spend the time and come up with a word wrapping algorithm but...

I have a 8.5 x 11 landscape document with about 1/4 inch of space on the left and right where there is no print. The document displays perfect in print preview, but when I print it, about 1/2 inch on the right is not printed (leaving about 3/4 inch empty margin on the right side of the page). The left side starts about 1/4 inch in and prints just like I expect it to. I tried setting the margins to 0 and OriginAtMargins = True. The print...
