I'd be very interested to hear the design decisions involved in such a project, and about the design of the current approach. Also, I think tutorial pretty printers could be very helpful for people (like me!) learning how to do this. Polymorphic pretty printers for types in the core library (Set, Map, Hashtbl) could be a handy add-on too. As a computer science teaching tool, perhaps these could be productively supplemented with graphical printers to print the internal representations as they evolve? Cheers, Jon.
