# text-short-0.1.6: Memory-efficient representation of Unicode text strings

This package provides the `ShortText` type which is suitable for keeping many short strings in memory. This is similiar to how `ShortByteString` relates to `ByteString`.

The main difference between `Text` and `ShortText` is that `ShortText` doesn't support zero-copy slicing (thereby saving 2 words), and, compared to text-1.*, that it uses UTF-8 instead of UTF-16 internally. Consequently, the memory footprint of a (boxed) `ShortText` value is 4 words (2 words when unboxed) plus the length of the UTF-8 encoded payload.
