The emitter should output a more compressed format

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

For example, a sequence of maps currently outputs as:

-
  name: Aaron Rodgers
  position: QB
-
  name: Greg Jennings
  position: WR

It would be nice if it outputted:

- name: Aaron Rodgers
  position: QB
- name: Greg Jennings
  position: WR

or at least have an option to choose between them. The reverse, I think,
should stay as-is. For example, I prefer

stooges:
  - Larry
  - Curly
  - Moe

YAML actually prohibits map-map inlining, so we must do

prices:
  computer: $400
  monitor: $150
  keyboard: $20

Finally, sequence-sequence inlining is legal, but kind of ugly. For
example, you can do

- - - - - foo
        - bar
    - baz
- woz

but it kind of looks silly. I'd rather have a newline after each.

But if anyone has a different opinion about the looks of any of these
options, please post here!
