Any way to properly pretty-print ordered dictionaries?

Question

I like the pprint module in Python. I use it a lot for testing and debugging. I frequently use the width option to make sure the output fits nicely within my terminal window

As a temporary workaround you can try dumping in JSON format. You lose some type information, but it looks nice and keeps the order.

import json

pprint(data, indent=4)
# ^ugly

print(json.dumps(data, indent=4))
# ^nice
