Description

The current implementation of bunyan-rs does not seem to recognize or pretty-print Python-style Tracebacks within the err.stack field. While the original Node.js bunyan CLI correctly identifies the \n characters and renders a multi-line stack trace, bunyan-rs treats the err object as a standard JSON object and prints it as a collapsed or raw JSON string.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the Rust CLI path that formats err.stack and compare its handling of newline characters with the behavior described for the original Node.js bunyan CLI; done means Python-style Tracebacks render as multi-line stack traces instead of collapsed or raw JSON.
