Thanks Jason for trying this. The genericserialize package is probably
not finished yet.

What else exists that could be used to serialize in generic way (i.
e., anything that is an instance of Data and Typeable) into a string?
It does not need to be very efficient as structures to be serialized
are not huge (but may be pretty complex), and serialization is a part
of an utility not to be used frequently. It only needs to "just work".

One thing I thought of was to serialize to JSON (there is a generic
serializer in one of packages although I did not test it other way)
which has higher overhead than S-expressions though.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks.
