trimdent-0.1.0.0: README.md
# trimdent
`Trimdent` is a simple library for smartly trimming and unindenting strings.
```haskell
>>> import Text.RawString.QQ (r)
>>> trimdent [r|func add(x int, y int) int {
return x + y
}
|]
"func add(x int, y int) int {\n\
\ return x + y\n\
\}"
```
## Why is this useful?
This library is useful when you are writing your own quasi quoter and want to
sanitize whitespace.
## How does it compare to other libraries?
* [Neat-interpolation](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/neat-interpolation)
exposes the same functionality but only in an interpolating quasi quoter.
This means that you can't easily use it in your own quoters.
* [raw-strings-qq](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/raw-strings-qq-1.1)
gives quasi quoters to express multi-line strings, but they don't do any
trimming.
