Forgot to say: if you go the first route, you'll also need to define your fromInteger in every module — the one from .ghci won't be in scope.
You can define module MyPrelude (module Prelude, fromInteger) where import Prelude hiding (fromInteger) fromInteger = id and import it instead. * Roman Cheplyaka <[email protected]> [2012-12-27 19:22:53+0200] > * Rustom Mody <[email protected]> [2012-12-27 22:18:15+0530] > > But now we are in for new surprises: Try out > > f x y = x / y > > Prelude> :l f > > [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( f.hs, interpreted ) > > > > f.hs:1:11: Not in scope: `/' > > Failed, modules loaded: none. > > Prelude> (/) > > It's because RebindableSyntax implies NoImplicitPrelude.
