Just because my OCaml programs were mutating strings and translating that into F# is non-trivial if the string is shared or big. In essence, I've always used OCaml's strings as a more efficient byte array. In fact, the best translation to F# is often to use byte arrays as a replacement for strings. -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/?e
