While working on a project, I discovered that hton[sl] and ntoh[sl] are missing from the networking libraries. It appears there was some justification for this, but I've fallen upon a few instances where things were *not* working as expected. (Specifically when newtype'ing around HostAddress.)
As such, I'm putting together a few extra functions that I think should exist in Network somewhere. I'm calling the package Network.Util (but am open to changes). Currently this only has: - htons - htonl - ntohs - ntohl Before I drop this on hackage: 1. Is there a reason I shouldn't do this? 2. Are there other suggestions for missing functions? (preferably cross-platform suggestions) Thanks all. /jve
