Thanks Jeff! That's exactly what I was looking for. Does anyone know why Takusen isn't on hackage yet? It appears to be cabalised, and have a tarball: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/pkg-list.html#cat:Database http://darcs.haskell.org/takusen/ -- Don _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
