Aha. Yes, I did click on one of those links, and my browser was fine: but the displayed log was simply truncated at 10,000 lines, which removed all the interesting stuff.
Moving the tip to the top, just under "What does it do?", and giving a bit more navigation info, would be a good plan. thanks Simon | -----Original Message----- | From: ghc-devs [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of | Joachim Breitner | Sent: 04 November 2014 08:55 | To: [email protected] | Subject: Re: Major commit to the constraint solver | | Hi, | | | Am Dienstag, den 04.11.2014, 08:44 +0000 schrieb Simon Peyton Jones: | > That's great; I didn't realise that. | > | > How can I navigate to the build log.
