  Description     : Fast Packed Strings library for Haskell
 fps provides mmapped and malloc'd packed strings (byte arrays held
 by a ForeignPtr), along with a list interface to these strings. It
 lets you do extremely fast IO in Haskell; in some cases, even faster
 than typical C implementations.

(Include the long description here.)
