Re: [PATCH] cmd: set: Introduce set sub-commands for tree printing

    One typical (noob-ish) use for GNU poke is just to parse the content of
    a binary file for visual inspection after having defined the binary
    structure in a pk file.
    
    Unfortunately the usual output from something like '$<data> @ 0#B'
    isn't really user friendly and it is massively difficult to make sense
    of the un-spaced wall of text in output.
    
    This patch wants to be an attempt to prettify a bit the displayed data
    introducing a new set of commands to tweak how the output data in a
    struct is displayed.

Applied and pushed to master.  Thank you very much for such an useful
contribution!

PS: also I just added .set omode tree to my ~/.pokerc file ;)
