Since adding this option I have noticed that reader is also customizable, using the undocumented variable ‘repl-reader’. The interface here is different. A custom printer is wrapped in a standard helper which, although convenient for the presumed common case, inhibits printing of e.g. unspecified values and other more elaborate behaviour. Is everyone satisfied with the chosen implementation of this print option, before we commit it to public API? In particular, I wonder if reader/printer setting should be made more symmetric by changing or extending either. Regards
