Bug#93417: ITP: ocaml-xstr -- OCaml library for frequent string operations
Package: wnpp
Severity: whishlist
This package implements frequent string operations: searching,
replacing, splitting, matching. It is independent from the Str library,
and can replace Str in many cases. Unlike Str, xstr is thread-safe.
xstr does not implement regular expressions in general, but an
important subset. Some operations of xstr are performed as quickly as
by Str; if the string to be processed is small, xstr is often faster
than Str; if the string is big, xstr is upto half as fast than Str.
