You could potentially do this with GHCi, but we haven't tried. The idea
is that you would need to expose parts of GHCi itself as a library which
can be used from the program. Linking is a bit tricky (you don't want
to load another copy of GHCi), but we know one way to get around that:
the --export-dynamic flag to ld.
If you're interested in having a go, come on over to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and we'll help out with any problems
you run into.
Cheers,
Simon
