in reply to Data::Dumper features?

The person who suggested the deparse option is me. I got it from activestate Perl 5.8.0 documentation. Hold on, I will check for you, whether there is an online version.

Got it for you: Data::Dumper, go there, and search for the word "deparse".

I don't find it in 5.6.1 documentation, so you may need to download Perl 5.8.0, in order to use this.

    Hmm, the link you sited gives a version number of "Version 2.12 (unreleased)". That's newer than the one in CPAN. I suppose it's updated "in house" (that site is for the company where GSAR works, right?) but not pushed out to the public. Or he doesn't use CPAN anymore now that he works for the big corporation?

    So this is the version that comes with ActiveState's 5.8 (though I guess not the standard 5.8, or it would be in CPAN)?

    Thanks for the link.
