Is there something between `prin1-to-string' and `princ'?

[Thorsten Jolitz]

Hi List, 

using `prin1-to-string' on a property list gives me:

,-------------------------------------------------------------
| ... :CATEGORY "tmp2" :title (#("C2 " 0 3 (:parent nil))) ...
`-------------------------------------------------------------

using `princ' gives me:

,-----------------------------------
| ... :CATEGORY tmp2 :title (C2) ...
`-----------------------------------

but what I want is either

,-----------------------------------
| ... :CATEGORY "tmp2" :title (C2) ...
`-----------------------------------

or even better

,-----------------------------------
| ... :CATEGORY "tmp2" :title ("C2") ...
`-----------------------------------

but there seems to be no print command or configuration option that
gives me strings quoted, but text without properties at the same time?

PS
this is not about `buffer-substring-no-properties' or so, its about how
to print out a *given* property list in a certain format.
