Description

Most of the documentation using 4 space hanging indent, but there are a few places where it needs to be cleaned up. I attached a patch to give some examples and get you started.

Rules to follow:

  • The closing parenthesis goes on its own line, aligned with the line that contains the opening parenthesis.
  • Include a trailing comma after the last kwarg or item in the dict or tuple so more items can be added later without modifying that line again.

Any questions, let me know.

In utils.txt, (new) line 670, there's no trailing comma. It kinda makes sense that there isn't one, since the function has exactly three arguments, but checking to see if that was intended.

It's not critical either way, but I find it easiest to always add the comma so you don't have to think about it. You never know if a function might gain new arguments too.

I'm sure there are other places to revise, but I committed my patch for now since no one has picked this up in a while and those weird indentations bother me when I see them.
