About

Writing a caeser cipher is fairly trivial, but fun to do if you're learning the language. I wrote this to get to grips with Haskell's GetOpt, as well as to see how nice I could make the stream processing. You might find it handy if you're just starting haskell, and the code is fairly clean (though quite simple).
