So any solutions welcome :-)
Thank to everyone who replied to my queries about this whole layout issue.
One other thing I've been wanting to ask (not to change! :-)) for a while
is: how is the following acceptable according to the rules in the Haskell98
report where "where" is one of the lexemes, which when followed by a line
more indented than the line the layout-starting-lexeme is on, should start
an implicit block:
module M where
data T = ..... -- not indented!
According to my understanding of the layout algorithm, the above code would
have to be written:
module M where
data T = ....
Can anyone shed some light on what the formal rule is that allows the first
(and very useful) way of laying out code to be ok?
Thanks, Brian.
