A module/class/instance/library browser perhaps?
Acquiring its information from standard libraries
and other user defined directories? Extracting comments,
module comments, class comments, and implementation
details to present them in some consistent way? Supporting
incremental compilation, a'la hmake? With intelligent use of
colorization, or other useful hints for programmers,
for a start? Intelligent inspectors?
In short - something that exists for ages in Smalltalk,
or in Eiffel development environment, but with Haskell's
extra capabilities, limitations and goals in view?
I once did something of this sort for Java:
+ Java browser for Xcoral editor - in C
+ Bongo based class hierarchy browser - in Java
You can find more about it on our web pages.
