some comments about bytestring-show package

Hi. I have started to use the bytestring-show package, since I need to serialize a big data structure in a lazy bytestring. However I have noted some possible problems with the API: - sometime it is used the put<xxx> prefix, other times the show<xxx> prefix - the module Text.Show.ByteString, IMHO, should re-export the Put class from the Data.Binary.Put. Thanks to the author of the package. Manlio Perillo

Maybe you have better luck contacting the maintainer of the package which can be found on the package's hackage page: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/bytestring-show regards, Bas
