```
[TEST1]: Please read all the lines to understand the usage.
[TEST2]: use whitespace to indent the output.
[test3]: unaltered text, a.k.a .upper() not applied to the string.
[TEST4]: using sys.stderr.write as the print function
[TEST5]: using click.echo as the print function
( TEST6 ): using custom frame characters
[TEST7:0]: By defining a 'counter_start',
[TEST7:1]: a counter number will be appended
[TEST7:2]: to the prefix.
[TEST8:1]: Different prefix printers can have different counters.
[TEST7:3]: As you see in this example,
[TEST8:2]: they have do not interfere with each other.
[TEST9:10]: Global counters can also be set.
[TEST9:11]: However, if any prefix printers has already been defined,
[TEST8:3]: you have to set global_redefine to True.
[TEST7:4]: But as you can see here,
[TEST7:5]: global counters still doesn't interfere with local counters.
[TEST10:12]: New prefix_printers will pick up the last global count, which can
[TEST10:13]: be handy with different prefixes should be used with sequential counting.
[TEST1]: With new lines in strings the text is converted
to multiline, then all but the first are
indented to line up with the rest.
[TEST1]: The next example wil not be ending with a `:`, since it has no input.
And as you can see, this is also a multiline text.
[DONE]
[BONUS]: variable_name = "Using a 'f-string' with an added '=' can be handy when debugging."
