val print : 'a BatInnerIO.output -> Stdlib.Char.t -> unit

val compare : t -> t -> int

The comparison function for characters, with the same specification as Pervasives.compare. Along with the type t, this function compare allows the module Char to be passed as argument to the functors Set.Make and Map.Make.

val equal : t -> t -> bool

val hash : t -> int

val ord : char BatOrd.ord
