Hey,
according to
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/bytestring/0.10.2.0/doc/html/Data-ByteString.html#v:split
I can write:
split '\n' a\nb\nd\ne
Can I really do that? I don't know of a way to make a '\n' literal be a
Word8, so maybe these Haddocks are wrong? I guess they would apply for
Data.ByteString.Char8, but this is Data.ByteString. Or is there a way?
No, there is no way—you’d need an ‘OverloadedChars’ extension that does not
exist. I think that text is meant to show the semantics of ‘split’ rather than
being actual code.
