| 97 | string. Note that the ``normal'' representation of the string is | |
| 98 | used as the character source: if escape sequences are needed in the | |

| 139 | Formatting methods for specific types are implemented as methods | |

| 141 | is replaced by | |

| 143 | Dispatch to these methods is handled by <tt class="method">repr1()</tt>. | |

| 145 | should call "<tt class="samp">self.repr1(<var>subobj</var>, <var>level</var> - 1)</tt>". | |
