Dear haskell-cafe, I would like to propose a new, ByteString like, Unicode string library which can be used where both efficiency (currently offered by ByteString) and i18n support (currently offered by vanilla Strings) are needed. I wrote a skeleton draft today but I'm a bit tired so I didn't get all the details. Nevertheless I think it fleshed out enough for some initial feedback. If I can get the important parts nailed down before Hackathon I could hack on it there.
Apologies for not getting everything we discussed on #haskell down in the first draft. It'll get in there eventually. Bring out your Unicode kung-fu! http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/UnicodeByteString Cheers, Johan Tibell _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
