Hello,
obviously, Hugs thinks that =- is a special operator. In Haskell
you have the
ability to define your own operators, so it would be possible to

declarations.

Hello,
thank you for fast reply.
Ok, but what is the semantic of '=-' ? If it's an operator, it should
have some impact (right term?).
The semantics are whatever you define them to be:
(=-) x y = doSomeFunkyStuff x y
Note that this also introduces problems with comments, a common
mistake people make is to not put a space after the -- comment
symbol, so they may end up with:
--| something
The compiler then interprets --| as an operator.
