Readme for binary-0.2

binary: efficient, pure binary serialisation using lazy ByteStrings ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 'binary' package provides Data.Binary, containing the Binary class, and associated methods, for serialising values to and from lazy ByteStrings. A key feature of 'binary' is that the interface is both pure, and efficient. The 'binary' package is portable to GHC and Hugs. Building: runhaskell Setup.hs configure runhaskell Setup.hs build runhaskell Setup.hs install First: import Data.Binary and then write an instance of Binary for the type you wish to serialise.
