This Haskell library provides the 'ShortText' type which is suitable
for keeping many short strings in memory. This is similiar to the
relationship between 'ShortByteString' and 'ByteString'.
.
The main differences between 'Text' and 'ShortText' is that
'ShortText' uses UTF-8 instead of UTF-16 internally and 'ShortText'
doesn't support zero-copy slicing (thereby saving 2 words).
Consequently, the memory footprint of a (boxed) 'ShortText' value is 4
words (2 words when unboxed) plus the length of the UTF-8 encoded
payload.
.
This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell
programming language.
