What is the reason for hiding the putStrLn of Prelude and importing that of Data.Text.IO?

Prelude takes a `String`, Data.Text.IO works with `Text`. Strings are linked lists of of chars, Text is a more traditional data structure. I tend to write small scripts and use Strings more, but Text is much more efficient for big blocks of text (unsurprisingly). The main reason I used it here was because I couldn't find a `replace` function for `String`, lol.
