Common readers

valuestr :: IsString s => Reader s

Read a string as-is.

This is the reader you will want to use for reading a String.

This is different from auto for strings because Read wants to parse quotes when parsing Strings.

valueauto :: Read a => Reader a

Read via the Read instance

You cannot use this for bare strings, because Read for strings parses quotes.
