Unless the print statements are "$-continued" to several lines ;-)

One could overload the print procudure, but I don't know how to
declare a procedure that takes multiple parameters. (BTW, can this be
done?)

Of course you could just use, say, 10 parameters and hope that's
enough...

pro print, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5, arg6, arg7, arg8, arg9,
arg10, _extra=extra
; do nothing
return
end
