seems like a good idea -DD
Problem: bigarrays and bignums are not linked with the default toplevel. -XL

Now that bigarrays are part of the stdlib, maybe printers could be considered for them?

@nojb could you please relabel as stdlib.

The question is then which format and API. Here are a few references:

• @mmottl's lacaml API (2D matrix and vector oriented).
• @dbuenzli's gg API (linear buffer oriented)
• @ryanrhymes's owl API (nD array oriented).

These are only the ones on the top of my head, I'm sure there are others.

I removed "bignum" from the title, since the old bignum library was split off, and the new ZArith library is external too.

This request is older than 17 years and is not relevant to me personally anymore. It is very easy to load your own pretty printers into the toplevel. Users will typically have highly specific preferences for the output of printers anyway, e.g. concerning number precision, column and/or row headers, data alignment, ellipses, etc. I'm fine if this doesn't make it into the OCaml distribution.
