A newer version of the data stringification package
C<Data::Dumper> is now available.  This version has
many enhancements, among them:

  * handles self-referential structures elegantly
  * several output styles are supported (all of them
    in perl syntax, hence C<eval>-able)
  * supports names for dumped variables (references to
    substructures will use these names with -> notation)
  * arrays and hashes can also be dumped as paranthesized
    lists

Pick it up from

  http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~gsar/Data-Dumper-1.2.pm

or (very soon) from any of the CPAN sites near you.
