Just released 0.2. It has the text IO and codecs module, with support for ASCII, ISO-8859-1, UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32. It should be relatively easy to add support for codec libraries like libicu or libiconv in the future. Both encoding and decoding are incremental, so you can (for example) process million-line logfiles in constant space. Examples/wc.hs has been updated to use this decoding module for its "character count" mode, which should allow users to see how it's used. Basically, you use 'joinI' to flatten the iteratees returned from enumeratees. The joinI / enumeratee style is used for implementing nested streams. This also changes the binary enumHandle to use non-blocking IO, as recommended by Magnus Therning. I'm embarrassed to admit I still don't understand the improvement, exactly, but three people so far have told me it's a good idea. As always, API docs and a literate PDF are available at: http://ianen.org/haskell/enumerator/api-docs/ http://ianen.org/haskell/enumerator/enumerator.pdf
