{- $textio
    Where pipes @IO@ replaces lazy @IO@, @Producer Text IO r@ replaces lazy 'Text'. 
    This module exports some convenient functions for producing and consuming 
    pipes 'Text' in @IO@, namely, 'readFile', 'writeFile', 'fromHandle', 'toHandle', 
    'stdin' and 'stdout'.  Some caveats described below. 
    
    The main points are as in 
    <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pipes-bytestring-1.0.0/docs/Pipes-ByteString.html Pipes.ByteString>:
    
    A 'Handle' can be associated with a 'Producer' or 'Consumer' according 
    as it is read or written to.

>     withFile "inFile.txt"  ReadMode  $ \hIn  ->
>     withFile "outFile.txt" WriteMode $ \hOut ->
>     runEffect $ Text.fromHandle hIn >-> Text.toHandle hOut

To stream from files, the following is perhaps more Prelude-like (note that it uses Pipes.Safe):

> import Pipes
> import qualified Pipes.Text as Text
> import qualified Pipes.Text.IO as Text
> import Pipes.Safe
>
> main = runSafeT $ runEffect $ Text.readFile "inFile.txt" >-> Text.writeFile "outFile.txt"

    Finally, you can stream to and from 'stdin' and 'stdout' using the predefined 'stdin'
    and 'stdout' pipes, as with the following \"echo\" program:

> main = runEffect $ Text.stdin >-> Text.stdout


-}


{- $caveats

    The operations exported here are a convenience, like the similar operations in 
    @Data.Text.IO@  (or rather, @Data.Text.Lazy.IO@, since, again, @Producer Text m r@ is
    'effectful text' and something like the pipes equivalent of lazy Text.)

    * Like the functions in @Data.Text.IO@, they attempt to work with the system encoding. 
  
    * Like the functions in @Data.Text.IO@, they significantly slower than ByteString operations. Where
       you know what encoding you are working with, use @Pipes.ByteString@ and @Pipes.Text.Encoding@ instead,
       e.g. @view utf8 Bytes.stdin@ instead of @Text.stdin@
  
    * Like the functions in  @Data.Text.IO@ , they use Text exceptions, not the standard Pipes protocols. 

   Something like 
 
>  view utf8 . Bytes.fromHandle :: Handle -> Producer Text IO (Producer ByteString m ()) 

   yields a stream of Text, and follows
   standard pipes protocols by reverting to (i.e. returning) the underlying byte stream
   upon reaching any decoding error. (See especially the pipes-binary package.) 

  By contrast, something like 

> Text.fromHandle :: Handle -> Producer Text IO () 

  supplies a stream of text returning '()', which is convenient for many tasks, 
  but violates the pipes @pipes-binary@ approach to decoding errors and 
  throws an exception of the kind characteristic of the @text@ library instead.

{-| Convert a 'IO.Handle' into a text stream using a text size 
    determined by the good sense of the text library. Note with the remarks 
    at the head of this module that this
    is  slower than @view utf8 (Pipes.ByteString.fromHandle h)@
    but uses the system encoding and has other nice @Data.Text.IO@ features

{-| Stream text to 'stdout'

    Unlike 'toHandle', 'stdout' gracefully terminates on a broken output pipe.
