Sure, if that is what Karel wants (it can be a separate patch).

The only thing that I don't like about that choice is that it can cause
puts() lines to wrap that otherwise would not. Since puts() is a lot
more common than printf(), it seems like putting the alignment burden on
printf() makes more sense.

But I don't have a strong opinion about it. Whatever Karel wants is fine
with me.

Make the change Karel?
