Hi

showSDoc $ ppr c

where c :: [CoreBind]

I have now set the -ppr-debug flag, but that has no effect. It's not
entirely surprising, as I guess setting the flag only applies through
the GHC session, and this code is being run outside that. How can I
print the output (to a file) using the unique id's?

Can I invoke CoreTidy using the GHC API?

Thanks

Neil
