//: Put indents into output streams, to produce more legible printed output
//  Its use is best described by example:
// \code
// vcl_cout<<vsl_indent()<<"No Indent\n";
// vsl_indent_inc(vcl_cout);
// vcl_cout<<vsl_indent()<<"1 Indent\n";
// vsl_indent_inc(vcl_cout);
// vcl_cout<<vsl_indent()<<"2 Indent\n";
// vsl_indent_dec(vcl_cout);
// vcl_cout<<vsl_indent()<<"1 Indent\n";
// vsl_indent_dec(vcl_cout);
// vcl_cout<<vsl_indent()<<"No Indent\n";
// \endcode
//
// This produces output of the form
// \verbatim
// No Indent
//   1 Indent
//     2 Indent
//   1 Indent
// No Indent
// \endverbatim
//
// Example of use in class output:
// \code
// class Fred
// {
// public:
//  void print(vcl_ostream& os) const { os<<vsl_indent()<<"Fred's data"; }
// };
//
// vcl_ostream& operator<<(vcl_ostream& os, const Fred& fred)
// {
//  os<<"Fred: \n";
//  vsl_indent_inc(os);
//  fred.print(os);
//  vsl_indent_dec(os);
//  return os;
// }
//
// class Jim
// {
// private:
//  Fred fred_;
// public:
//  void print(vcl_ostream& os) const
//  {
//    os<<vsl_indent(os)<<fred_<<vcl_endl;
//    os<<vsl_indent(os)<<"Jim's other data"; }
//  };
//
// vcl_ostream& operator<<(vcl_ostream& os, const Jim& jim)
// {
//  os<<"Jim: \n";
//  vsl_indent_inc(os);
//  jim.print(os);
//  vsl_indent_dec(os);
//  return os;
// }
//
// main()
// {
//  Jim jim;
//  vcl_cout<<jim<<vcl_endl;
// }
// \endcode
//
// This produces output:
// \verbatim
//  Jim:
//    Fred's data
//    Jim's other data
// \endverbatim

//: Tidy up the internal indent map to remove potential memory leaks
//  The details of indents for each stream are stored in a static
//  map.  When testing for memory leaks, this is flagged, creating
//  lots of noise in the output of memory leak checkers.
//  This call empties the map, removing the potential leak.
//  Pragmatically it is called in the vsl_delete_all_loaders()
