Are you planning to have this restricted to lower-case letters?
According to Char, one might expect "az" to be followed by "a{" and so
on up to "a\1114111". The number of possible 2-character strings is
larger than the number of Ints.
I suggest defining a special-purpose version from enumFromTo for
strings and leaving Enum alone.
