Hi,

I want to check the help page of a function in haskell. For example,
to check the help page of "many", could anybody help me know to get to
its help page? Thanks.

A quick way to do it is :doc inside ghci, like

    λ> :doc head
     /O(1)/. Extract the first element of a list, which must be non-empty.

If you prefer something in your web-browser, hoogle can help you

    https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=many&scope=set%3Astackage

Does this help?

$ ghci
GHCi, version 8.10.4: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Prelude> :doc many

<interactive>:1:1: error: Not in scope: ‘many’

Any way to automatically determine the module to load and load it
automatically in the command line?
