I disagree. First of all, UHC states explicitly that some features are not supported (and probably never would be). Secondly, it seems like almost nobody uses (n+k)-patterns,
How can you possibly know that?
and when they are used, they make the code less readable;
I use them because they make the code *MORE* readable. Some versions of the 'view' idea can be used to fake n+k patterns, so I imagine that this argument will be used to ensure that UHC never ever supports anything resembling views. If I want something that's almost a Haskell compiler but not quite, with some interesting extensions, I've known where to find Clean for a long time. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
