I've filed your feature request in the Cabal trac: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/179 Do please add your suggestions in a comment there. Login with username "guest" and password "haskell'" (note the apostrophe at the end). > Is this currently possible? I recognize the "add a separate > Program-Main.hs file" workaround, but I'll avoid it if I can. A workaround is to use: main-is: Program/Main.hs ghc-options: -main-is Program.Main Duncan _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
