    intercepting things send to print() for some intermediate processing

    Will this work? Basically I want to add a tab character in front of every
    message printed. Thanks.
    Why don't you try it yourself?
    You may replace builtins.print with your own function too. It's not
    exactly the same thing, but given your request "intercepti ng things send
    to print() before they're sent to sys.stdout" it may be more adequate.
