Unicode in identifiers and symbols actually already works, assuming you don't use the non-Unicode-aware parseFile, parseFileWithExts or parseFileWithMode (which all use Prelude.readLine). What doesn't work is to use the Unicode versions of special symbols like ->, => etc. I'm waiting for a stable and blessed unicode-aware text package to replace utf8-string, before we have one of those then my support would only be half-hearted at best. But in the mean time you can use the readLine provided by utf8-string, and then parseFileContents on that, which should give you the politically correct names. ;-) Cheers, /Niklas _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
