IO

val pp : ?pp_start:unit printer -> ?pp_stop:unit printer -> ?pp_sep:unit printer -> 'a printer -> 'a t printer

pp ~pp_start ~pp_stop ~pp_sep pp_item ppf s formats the sequence s on ppf. Each element is formatted with pp_item, pp_start is called at the beginning, pp_stop is called at the end, pp_sep is called between each elements. By defaults pp_start and pp_stop does nothing and pp_sep defaults to (fun out -> Format.fprintf out ",@ ").
