  Found on *Lobste.rs*: Mark Karpov writes yet another [Haskell
  vs. OCaml] for old time's sake. I found it worth a read and a 
  mention
  here.

  p.s. He spends a bit of time in the intro lamenting the lack of 
  a
  conventional Unicode string library for OCaml, and I feel that 
  pain
  acutely, especially since I'm the author of an *unconventional* 
  one,
  i.e. the [Ucs_text] module in my [Orsetto] project.
