Look on Hackage; subscribe to mailing lists (where package maintainers

OK. I guess I must have missed that one...
It's rather surprising you haven't heard of text: it is for benchmarking
this that Bryan wrote criterion; there's emails on -cafe and blog posts
that mention it on a semi-regular basis, etc.
Well, I suppose I don't do a lot of text processing work... If all
you're trying to do is parse commands from an interactive terminal
prompt, [Char] is probably good enough.
(What I do do is process big chunks of binary data - which is what
ByteString is intended for.)
