In the documentation for the indent string option the code

# String used as indentation unit. This is usually "  " (4 spaces) or "\t" (1
# tab).
indent-string="    "

Is rendered incorrectly due to markdown or html folding multiple whitespaces into one. As such the documentation currently appears as:

This can create a bit of confusion when attempting to change this option, as seen in https://stackoverflow.com/q/54117674/7052741

Direzione di ricerca: The issue reports that the documentation for the indent string option renders spaces incorrectly because Markdown/HTML collapses multiple whitespaces. The solution is to use non breaking spaces (e.g., ` `) or wrap the default value in a code block to preserve whitespace. Locate the documentation file (likely a `.rst` or `.md` file in the repository) that contains the indent string option description and apply the fix. Test the rendering locally or refer to the issue comments for discussion on the approach.
