I am trying to indent the output of pprint so that I will get an 8 space indentation with pprint. The code I used is:

```
import numpy as np
from pprint import pprint
A = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4])
f = open("log.txt", 'w')
n = 2
for i in range(n):
    A = A + 1
    f.writelines(list(u'    \u27B3 - %s\n'.encode('utf-8') % i for i in A))
    pprint(globals())

```

**Output**

```none
{'A': array([2, 3, 4, 5]),
 '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>,
 '__doc__': None,
 '__file__': '~/Stack exchange/pprint_tab.py',
 '__name__': '__main__',
 '__package__': None,
 'f': <open file 'log.txt', mode 'w' at 0xb659b8b8>,
 'i': 0,
 'n': 2,
 'np': <module 'numpy' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist...,
 'pprint': <function pprint at 0xb6dea48c>}
{'A': array([3, 4, 5, 6]),
 '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>,
 '__doc__': None,
 '__file__': '~/Stack exchange/pprint_tab.py',
 '__name__': '__main__',
 '__package__': None,
 'f': <open file 'log.txt', mode 'w' at 0xb659b8b8>,
 'i': 1,
 'n': 2,
 'np': <module 'numpy' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist...,
 'pprint': <function pprint at 0xb6dea48c>}

```

**Desired output**

```none
        {'A': array([2, 3, 4, 5]),
         '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>,
         '__doc__': None,
         '__file__': '~/Stack exchange/pprint_tab.py',
         '__name__': '__main__',
         '__package__': None,
         'f': <open file 'log.txt', mode 'w' at 0xb659b8b8>,
         'i': 0,
         'n': 2,
         'np': <module 'numpy' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist...,
         'pprint': <function pprint at 0xb6dea48c>}
        {'A': array([3, 4, 5, 6]),
         '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>,
         '__doc__': None,
         '__file__': '~/Stack exchange/pprint_tab.py',
         '__name__': '__main__',
         '__package__': None,
         'f': <open file 'log.txt', mode 'w' at 0xb659b8b8>,
         'i': 1,
         'n': 2,
         'np': <module 'numpy' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist...,
         'pprint': <function pprint at 0xb6dea48c>}

```

In short, I need a space indentation when written to file or printed with `pprint`. I tried 

```
pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(indent=8)

```

but it does not work
