Given an arbitrary recursive structure, say a lisp sexpr, how do you print
it in a form that can be read back to create the same structure?
For example, given the scheme expression
(let ((x (cons 'a nil))) (set-cdr! x x) x)
how do I print some scheme expression that, when interpreted, creates the
same structure, rather than just a lot of ``a''s?
I know that there must be some literature on this subject, but I don't
know where it is. Any pointers would be appreciated.
