pretty-print

I'm fixing some PHP scripts and I'm missing ruby's pretty printer. i.e.

require 'pp'
arr = {:one => 1}
pp arr

will output {:one => 1}. This even works with fairly complex objects and makes digging into an unknown script much easier. Is there some way to duplicate this functionality in PHP?
