nstore to Data::Dumper

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello fellow monks. I just wanted to know if there was any way we could convert
a file which has been stored in the nstore
(Storable) form to Data::Dumper form.
I dont know if that seems something silly,
but i really need to know.
Any suggestions accepted.
Thanks

Have you already tried something like this? `use Storable; use Data::Dumper; print Dumper retrieve('filename');` [download] $perlmonks{seattlejohn} = 'John Clyman';	[reply] [d/l]

One liner, $infile is your Storable file name, $out is a handle to the Data::Dumper file you write. `print $out Dumper(retrieve $infile);` After Compline, Zaxo	[reply] [d/l]
