A bit of both. Someone (dons?) had a good discussion on the Haskell reddit about why you shouldn't use them, but I can't seem to find it at the moment (I did find this one, but I seem to recall a better discussion: http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/bfcfs/haskells_big_three/c0mhqtg ). Otherwise, the documentation for it discourages its use: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.2/html/users_guide/syntax-extns.html#package-imports -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic ivan.miljeno...@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
