However, there is a dearth of information regarding this point on the web, so I could be wrong. Fortunately, you are :-). It's automagically invoked by the kernel's executable loader whenever any Mach-O binary is loaded that only has ppc code. You're right about the lack of (easily available) information though. A friend of mine was at the conference when they announced the switch, so I just asked him to try it out; I have found no place on the web that spells it out.

Will code compiled for the old macs work on the macbooks or does it need to be recompiled? Yes and no. GHC, and programs compiled by it, should run without recompiling under Apple's "Rosetta" emulator, but that will be slower than on (powerpc) PowerBooks. A port to Mac OS X on Intel is in progress and mostly finished. GHC 6.6 will support building native Intel code for the new Macs; if there is sufficient demand, I could also backport this support to the GHC 6.4.x line once it's finished.

Will code compiled for the old macs work on the macbooks or does it need to be recompiled? I don't expect that ghc has any support for building "universal binaries", so in all likelihood yes. ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

For example ":module +Data.Char" will bring the "Data.Char" module into scope. $ ghci ___ ___ _ / _ \ /\ /\/ __(_) / /_\// /_/ / / | | GHC Interactive, version 6.4.1, for Haskell 98. / /_\\/ __ / /___| | http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ \/\/ /_/\/|_| Type :? for help.

Hello, I am new to Haskell(GHC). When i try to call the function ord which is in Data.Char from Prelude prompt. I get the following error. Not in scope ord. Hope to hear from someone soon.
