Re: Print set and maps

Well I am aware of the s-exp conversion but it is a bit too verbose for me.

I want something closer to what the "print" function is doing in Batteries'
modules but without the BatInnerIO.output related stuff and a simple string
output.

I am currently using module include to transparently add new function but
it is a bit cumbersome.

Regards,
Johan
