I actually need little endian encoding... wondering if anyone else hit
leimy2k: this
with Data.Binary. (because I'm working with Bell Lab's 9P protocol which does encode things on the network in little-endian order).
Anyone got some "tricks" for this?
Yes! There are big, little and host-endian primitives in the Get/Put monads.

You can use these to build encoders directly.
Cool... I just have to write my own encoder and decoder now. As a request could we get encodeLe decodeLe for a later version of this library? :-) That'd be totally awesome.
Cheers, Don
