[erlang-questions] is there rr() finctionality outside of shell?

[Nick Marino]

The shell uses the io_lib_pretty module to format records, so you could try
tapping into that. It's undocumented, so YMMV, stuff could break in future
versions, etc. But if you're careful with upgrades and such then you'll
probably be okay.
