This package was created - in the spirit of - @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-show bytestring-show>@. - - At the moment, @text-show@ provides instances for most data - types in the @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/array array>@, - @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base base>@, - @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring bytestring>@, and - @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/text text>@ packages. - Therefore, much of the source code for @text-show@ consists of - borrowed code from those packages in order to ensure that the - behaviors of @Show@ and @TextShow@ coincide. - - For most uses, simply importing "TextShow" - will suffice: - - @ - module Main where - - import TextShow - - main :: IO () - main = printT (Just \"Hello, World!\") - @ - - If you desire it, there are also monomorphic versions of the @showb@ - function available in the submodules of "TextShow". See the - <https://github.com/RyanGlScott/text-show/wiki/Naming-conventions naming conventions> - page for more information. - - Support for automatically deriving @TextShow@ instances can be found - in the "TextShow.TH" and "TextShow.Generic" modules. If you don't - know which one to use, use "TextShow.TH". - </longdescription> <origin>gentoo-staging</origin> </pkgmetadata>
