Just in case you misunderstood : this functionality was already there in GHC 6.4, it's just the new syntax to active it that is available only in recent versions of GHC : this new syntax will hopefully be adopted by others Haskell compilers and thus become a compiler-agnostic way of specifying extensions to Haskell98 (so that others compiler than GHC can tell you why they won't compile this wonderful code that use all the latest extensions that have been included into your release candidate of GHC, much better than the old way where they just told you the syntax was wrong, isn't it ?). -- Jedaï _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
