+     "An efficient compact, immutable byte string type (both strict and lazy)
+suitable for binary or 8-bit character data.  The 'ByteString' type represents
+sequences of bytes or 8-bit characters.  It is suitable for high performance use,
+both in terms of large data quantities, or high speed requirements.  The 'ByteString'
+functions follow the same style as ordinary lists, so it is easy to convert code
+from using 'String' to 'ByteString'.")
