[erlang-questions] [ANN] SeqBind, Sequential Binding Parse Transformation for Erlang (Experimental)

[Yurii Rashkovskii]

Jon,

This is a good & valid concern. WIth this use case in mind, I just
added seqbind:i/3 (M,F,A) helper that can be used to print out
function-in-question's source code interactively with all sequential
bindings renamed so that they can be easily matched to those you can
use in the debugger.
