(synopsis "Deep pretty printer for Go data structures to aid in debugging")
(description "Package @command{spew} implements a deep pretty printer
for Go data structures to aid in debugging.
A quick overview of the additional features spew provides over the built-in printing facilities for Go data types are as follows:
@itemize
@item Pointers are dereferenced and followed.
@item Circular data structures are detected and handled properly.
@item Custom Stringer/error interfaces are optionally invoked, including on
unexported types.
@item Custom types which only implement the Stringer/error interfaces via a
pointer receiver are optionally invoked when passing non-pointer variables.
@item Byte arrays and slices are dumped like the hexdump -C command which
includes offsets, byte values in hex, and ASCII output (only when using Dump
style).
@end itemize\n")
