There is a proposed extension which is not implemented but was discussed on the list a while back, maybe you'd find this interesting: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/haskell-prime/wiki/TypeDirectedNameResolution Search back in the archives for TDNR and you should turn up some threads. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
