Re: [Haskell-cafe] System.IO but not with Data.String?

Ah, that looks very useful indeed, thank you. On Fri, May 10, 2024 at 1:37 PM Andrew Lelechenko wrote:

See also a companion package https://hackage.haskell.org/package/file-io, which connects efficient and correct OsPath with ByteString-based readFile / writeFile.

Best regards, Andrew

Perfect! Yes, that's exactly what I'm looking for. Amazing that I completely missed that, it's not even that new.

We have Text and ByteString as alternatives to String but as soon as you want to do anything IO related (read a file, get a directory's content, et cetera) it seems your only option is to use String.

Maybe you are looking for the new versions of 'filepath' and 'directory' packages that use the OsString type from 'os-string'?
