+
+ An efficient packed, immutable Unicode text type (both strict and
+ lazy), with a powerful loop fusion optimization framework.
+
+ The 'Text' type represents Unicode character strings, in a time and
+ space-efficient manner. This package provides text processing
+ capabilities that are optimized for performance critical use, both
+ in terms of large data quantities and high speed.
+
+ The 'Text' type provides character-encoding, type-safe case
+ conversion via whole-string case conversion functions. It also
+ provides a range of functions for converting 'Text' values to and from
+ 'ByteStrings', using several standard encodings.
+
+ Efficient locale-sensitive support for text IO is also supported.
+
+ These modules are intended to be imported qualified, to avoid name
+ clashes with Prelude functions, e.g.
+
+ &gt; import qualified Data.Text as T
+
+ To use an extended and very rich family of functions for working
+ with Unicode text (including normalization, regular expressions,
+ non-standard encodings, text breaking, and locales), see
+ the @text-icu@ package:
+ &lt;http://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-icu&gt;
