I've been writing a Stringable class for my SoC project. You can check out the code at http://darcs.haskell.org/SoC/fps-soc/Data/Stringable.hs.
i've downloaded full fps-soc repository. 2 questions: why you don't include this into FPS library? your modules anyway stay alone, but for practical usage it would be more useful why not extend this to the "class ListLike ce e | ce->e" ? all functions in your definitions is not Char-specific, so i think it's just meaningless waste of generality. it will be great to import list-processing functions definitions from MissingH and use them to define either generic algorithms (which uses with any list-like data structures) or list-specific ones there are also similar classes in Collections (and Edison) libs, but it seems that you (and Don) don't have any plans to interoperate with these libs. at least, your class will be a great base for libs like FilePath by Neil Mitchell -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
