The Haskell Style Guide is quite popular:
https://github.com/tibbe/haskell-style-guide/blob/master/haskell-style.md
(accompying
elisp module:
https://github.com/tibbe/haskell-style-guide/blob/master/haskell-style.el)
I am not sure what the verdict is on functions spanning multiple lines,
other than 80 columns being the max line length. Personally, I do what
haskell-mode + style-guide.el default to, which is to indent to the same
level like you said, e.g.:
fun a b c
d e f
Looking at some of the style guide author's code seems to suggest this is
what he does too:
https://github.com/tibbe/ekg/blob/master/System/Remote/Snap.hs#L155
Of course, you're free to do it whichever way you prefer--it only matters
if you are collaborating with others who don't share your preferences
(always a fun activity.)
It would be cool if there was a The One Formatting Tool for Haskell, a la
"go fmt" for Go, or an 'indent' without so many options that the tool is
moot.
