Data::Dumper is designed to produce Perl source code that can be eval'd
to reconstruct the object. So
PHP knows print_r -- which prints a data structure hierarchically,
and is very useful for debugging.
e.g.
echo Variable a is . print_r( $a, true ) . \n;
Is there something similarly easy in Perl?

That just changes the amount of whitespace. Here is an example of
what I want:
Some::Package {
a = 'a value',
b = 12,
c = Other::Package {
x = 34
}
}
instead of what Data::Dumper gives me, which seems to be:
p is $VAR1 = bless( [
bless( {
'c' = 3,
'a' = 1,
I realize why it does that. I'm asking whether I can have something
higher-level that works for objects on the abstraction level where
one usually looks at an object.
P.S. I would know, because it would say HASH instead of Some::Package.
