Ah yes, the actual docs. Somehow didn't think to check that, sorry.
Alright, I'll try to figure that one out, thanks. Any particular reason nobody just offers http over lazy I/O? Is it just because lazy I/O is generally discouraged? Or just particularly bad over a network?
Lazy I/O is particularly problematic when implmenting network servers and generally discouraged for networking code.
And is this an area where Conduit is better than Pipes?
Conduit has been around longer and is thus more mature and complete.
There doesn't seem to be a similar http for Pipes.
I believe Andrew Cowie, author of http-streams (on top of io-streams) is working on a Pipes version. HTH, Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/
