Here's the first release of astring, described by: Astring exposes an alternative String module for OCaml. This module tries to balance minimality and expressiveness for basic, index-free, string processing and provides types and functions for substrings, string sets and string maps. Remaining compatible with the OCaml String module is a non-goal. The String module exposed by Astring has exception safe functions, removes deprecated and rarely used functions, alters some signatures and names, adds a few missing functions and fully exploits OCaml's newfound string immutability. Astring depends only on the OCaml standard library. It is distributed under the BSD3 license. Feedback on the API is welcome, it could still slightly change before stabilizing on a 1.0.0 release. Homepage: http://erratique.ch/software/astring API docs: http://erratique.ch/software/astring/doc/Astring My thanks to David Kaloper for a heated and useful discussion about the API. Remaining misconceptions are mine. Best, Daniel
