Comment (by claus):
if you're using cygwin's bash (actually, a slight variation should work
with unix/bash as well), you can do something like the following in your
`~/.bashrc` (might need tweaking, this version assumes that there is a
`ghc/ghc-<version>/bin` in your `PATH` that you want to replace, and that
your GHCs are installed in `c:/ghc/ghc-<version>`):
{{{
function set-ghc { export PATH=`echo $PATH | sed
's/ghc\/ghc-[0-9.]*\/bin/ghc\/'$1'\/bin/'`; }
function F { i=0;
for f in /cygdrive/c/ghc/$2*;
do COMPREPLY[$i]=`basename $f`;
i+=1 ;
done; }
complete -F F set-ghc
}}}
Calling `set-ghc 6.10.3` replaces the in-`PATH` GHC, and function `F` is
used to provide commandline completion for `set-ghc`, based on the
currently installed GHCs.
Oh, and of course I have several GHCis in my right-click menu, as `"Open
with GHCi <version>"`, so the above doesn't need to replace the system-
wide `PATH`.
Then one only needs to be able to go directly to the docs matching the
currently selected GHC, which I can do
[http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/GHCi#Package_and_documentation_lookup_in_GHCi
.2C_via_ghc-paths from within GHCi, via `GHC.Paths`] (not yet included in
HP:-(, or from within Vim, via the haskellmode plugins.
