name:                exceptional
version:             0.1.5.1
x-revision: 1
synopsis:            Essentially the Maybe type with error messages.
description:         
  This is a very simple type:
  .
  > data Exceptional x
  >   = Failure String
  >   | Success x
  .
  It's much like @Maybe@, except instead of @Nothing@, we have @Failure
  String@.
  .
  A comparison could also be made to @Either String@. I made this library
  because I was dissatisfied with the @Monad@ instance for @Either@. In this
  type, @fail = Failure@. It's rather simple.
  .
  Changes
  .
  [0.1.5.0] Add @exceptIO@ function to encapsulate IO errors in the
            @Exceptional@ monad.
  .
  [0.1.4.3] Fix bug where @exceptional@ won't compile on @base < 4.8@.
            Also move the changelog back to the description so it's more
            visible.
  .
  [0.1.4.2] Moved change log to a separate file so Hackage displays
            it correctly.
  .
  [0.1.4.1] Documentation enhancements/fixes.
  .
  [0.1.4.0] Added @fromMaybe@ and @toMaybe@ functions, and a link to
  the bug tracker.
  .
  [0.1.3.0] Fixed a typo. 0.1.2.0 won't build. Also added definition
  of @empty@ for @Alternative@.
  .
  [0.1.2.0] Added @fromEither@ and @toEither@ functions.
  .
  [0.1.1.3] Hackage is terrible. Yet another formatting fix.

  .
  [0.1.1.1] Formatting fix to the haddock documentation.
