-------------------------
What is MissingH?
-------------------------

It's a collection of Haskell-related utilities. It is an extension of my
earlier work developing MissingLib for OCaml.

-------------------------
Major Features
-------------------------

* Powerful Logging Framework for Haskell
This framework provides a system of hierarchical loggers and
modular handlers permitting fine-grained logging with a great deal
of control and yet a simple and fast interface. It's based on
log4j for Java and logging for Python.

Also included is a native-Haskell Syslog client.

* Versatile modules to simplify everyday tasks:
+ FTP client library
+ E-mail client library
+ MIME types library to determine MIME types from files or URLs
+ Configuration file parser/generator

* IO utilities make it easier to work with line-based text files
and binary files

* IO object virtualization so you can use one set of code to work
on files of many different types

* Filesystem virtualization so you can access various items with the
same ease as your system's filesystem

* Network utilities to streamline connections

* List utilities including association list tools,
list splitting, truncation, and delimiter joining

* String utilities including removal of leading or trailing
whitespace, joining, splitting, and truncation

* Other utilities for threads, parsers, filenames, etc.

* Printf utilities for formatting strings

* GZip decompression

* Hundreds of unit tests to verify proper functionality

* DBM module abstraction

The following modules are are provided at this time, and more are
likely to follow:

MissingH.AnyDBM * Generic DBM-like database infrastructure

MissingH.AnyDBM. * Use a Map in the AnyDBM interface
MapDBM

MissingH.AnyDBM. * Simple persistent mapping storage
StringDBM

MissingH.Bits * Obtain individual bytes from a bitfield

MissingH.Cmd * Trap errors during calls to external programs

MissingH.Checksum.* * Utilities for calculating checksums over strings

MissingH.Compression.* * Compression/decompression algorithms

Inflate gunzip

MissingH.ConfigParser * Configuration file parser
* Interpolation supported
* Compatible with Python and OCaml ConfigParsers

MissingH.Daemon * Support for detaching from a terminal

MissingH.Debian * Compare two Debian version numbers
[ does not require Debian to compile ]

MissingH.Debian. * Parse debian/control files or output from
ControlParser various Debian commands that use the same format
[ does not require Debian to compile run ]

MissingH.Either * Utilities for the Either type/Error monad

MissingH.Email.Parser * Parse a flat string into component parts

* Lets you emulate real filesystems and work
with multiple filesystems

MissingH.IO.StatCompat * Utilities for simulating stat(2) structures
on home-grown filesystems or Windows

MissingH.IO.WindowsCompat * Provides POSIX-like functions on Windows

MissingH.List * Association list manipulation
* List splitting and delimiter joining
* Truncation

MissingH.Logging * Base logging types

MissingH.Logging.Handler * Base handler types

MissingH.Logging. * Logging to a stream
Handler.Simple * Logging to a file

MissingH.Logging. * Logging to local or remote syslog
Handler.Syslog * No C library implementation required

MissingH.Logging.Logger * Primary user interface to logging
* Documentation for the logging system

MissingH.Map * Flip a Map and other utilities

MissingH.Maybe * forceMaybe utility function

MissingH.MIMETypes * Determine the MIME type of a file
* Guess an extension based on MIME type

MissingH.Network * Establish TCP connections easily
* Trap SIGPIPE to prevent odd crashes

MissingH.Network. * Versatile FTP client module
FTP.Client * Full support for uploads and downloads
* Passive or standard mode
* Lazy uploads and downloads
* Also provides low-level interface to issue
advanced server commands

MissingH.Network. * Parse FTP protocol replies
FTP.Parser

MissingH.Parsec * Invert the sense of a parser

MissingH.Path * Split apart filename components
* Recursive directory scanning
* Recursive file/directory removal (rm -r)

MissingH.Path.Glob * Expand wildcards to obtain a list of files

MissingH.Path.WildPath * Evaluate filenames or strings against wildcards
* Convert wildcards to regular expressions

MissingH.Regex.Pesco * Perl-like regular expression operations and
operators

MissingH.Str * Leading/trailing whitespace removal
* Beginning/ending tests
* Joining, splitting, and truncation

MissingH.Str.CSV * Parsing of comma-separated value (CSV) files

MissingH.Threads * Threaded callbacks

MissingH.Time * Utilities for working with times and dates

MissingH.Time. * Parsing of dates, similar to strptime() in C
ParseDate

Wash.Mail.* * Generate or parse e-mail messages
* Full support for headers and MIME

Wash.Utility.* * Base64 codec
* Various Internet-related parsers

The entire library has no prerequisites save the Haskell standard
library and is designed to install without complexity on a variety of
systems. It could also easily be embedded within your own source
trees so that users need not have it installed beforehand.
