The language has support for literate > comments, but it seems that many common LP tools don't respect it. I don't know whether you'd regard this as literate programming, but there's a move afoot to get a widely used Haskell documentation tool (enclosed). Simon -----Original Message----- From: Henrik Nilsson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 February 2001 22:14 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Announcing haskelldoc Dear Haskellers, At the recent Haskell Implementors' meeting in Cambridge, UK, it was decided that it would be useful to have a standard for embedded Haskell documentation. Such standards, and associated tools for extracting and formating the documentation in various ways, exists for other languages like Java and Eiffel and have proven to be very useful. Some such tools also exist (and are being actively developed) for Haskell, but there is as yet no generally agreed upon standard for the format of the embedded documentation as such. To address this, a mailing list has been started with the aim of defining a standard for embedded Haskell documentation, and possibly also related standards which would facilitate the development of various tools making use of such documentation (formatters, source code browsers, search tools, etc.). We feel that it is important to involve all who might be interested in this work at an early stage, so that as many aspects as possible can be taken into consideration, and so that the proposal for a standard which hopefully will emerge has a reasonable chance of gaining widespread support.
