I often find myself wanting to print out hex values as a string. I couldn't

Me too! And I also often want to see binary values (ie. 13 == 0x0D == 0b1101)

Just some information: I remember that there is a 'showHex' function in the "NumExts" module in Ghc (at least in version 5.x). See:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/hslibs/sec-NumExts.html

It's now Numeric from the 'base' package: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Numeric.html

Prelude> Numeric.showIntAtBase 2 Char.intToDigit 99 "" "1100011" Prelude> Numeric.showHex 30 "" "1e"

so you can eyeball the octet you are looking for.

Should a function like the one I want (and posted) go in NumExts?

No. There should be one that puts an item in a list every n items, that you can cascade. -- Aaron Denney -><-
