GHC mangles UTF by default. You probably want to use one of the utf8 packages; eg. http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/utf8-string or http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/utf8-light (Neither of them seems to allow for accessing *arguments* rather than stdin/stdout, but you could probably do something with the encoding/decoding functions.) -- gwern _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
