Research direction

The issue names pprint but does not identify an implementation file, test, or concrete option behavior. Start by locating the pprint implementation and tests, then review the dependency on the general pprint rewrite in bpo-7434; completion requires an agreed truncation design and corresponding test coverage.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
