How can I produce a nice output of a numpy matrix?

I currently have the following snippet:

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import numpy
from numpy import linalg

A = [[1,2,47,11],[3,2,8,15],[0,0,3,1],[0,0,8,1]]
S = [[113,49,2,283],[-113,0,3,359],[0,5,0,6],[0,20,0,12]]

A = numpy.matrix(A)
S = numpy.matrix(S)

numpy.set_printoptions(precision=2, suppress=True, linewidth=120)
print("S^{-1} * A * S")
print(linalg.inv(S) * A * S)

which produces this output:

python output

Is there a standard way to produce an output similar to the following? How can I get this output?

[[ -1    -0.33  0  0]
 [  0     1     0  0]
 [  0  -648     4  0]
 [  0     6.67  0  5]]

What's different?

At least two spaces between the last character of column i and the first character of column i+1, but it might be more if more is needed (NumPy output makes two spaces)
the dots are aligned (The are aligned, but the font setting of BetterPythonConsole messes it up)
No -0 but 0
No 0. but 0

edit: It seems as if the Python Console, which gets started with gEdits BetterPythonConsole plugin does something different than Python, when I start it from terminal.

This is the output as text of the script above

moose@pc07:~/Desktop$ python matrixScript.py 
S^{-1} * A * S
[[  -1.     -0.33    0.     -0.  ]
 [   0.     -1.     -0.      0.  ]
 [   0.   -648.      4.     -0.  ]
 [   0.      6.67    0.      5.  ]]

With prettyprint:

S^{-1} * A * S
matrix([[  -1.  ,   -0.33,    0.  ,   -0.  ],
        [   0.  ,   -1.  ,   -0.  ,    0.  ],
        [   0.  , -648.  ,    4.  ,   -0.  ],
        [   0.  ,    6.67,    0.  ,    5.  ]])

This is defenitely worse, but it was worth a try.
