Re: Proposal: ArgumentDo

think basic Haskell syntax for the most part strikes a pretty good balance on a number of counts), but we can certainly avoid making it even more complicated and exotic. Which the present proposal would, in my opinion. Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science The University of N

Re: Proposal: ArgumentDo

, the inherent asymmetry of the proposal (the last argument position is special as, for certain kinds of expressions, parentheses may be omitted there but not elsewhere) is also deeply unsettling. Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science The University of Nottingham n...@cs.not

Re: RFC: changes to -i flag for finding source files

convenience of essentially one-to-one mappings between module and file names, I think this proposal would be a step in the right direction, if feasible. Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science The University of Nottingham n...@cs.nott.ac.uk This message and any attachment

Re: Records in Haskell

something? E.g. is the idea that sharing of fields only applies to fields of monomorphic type, i.e. whose type can be declared globally? Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science The University of Nottingham n...@cs.nott.ac.uk

are not. No, I agree completely with Malcolm: not taking the time to quote ONLY what is of relevance to provide the immediately relevant context for a point one wishes to make is a failure of communication and, indeed, an abuse of other's time.

Re: Two Proposals

are a rather surprising use of list literals. Maybe. But not more surprising than how, say, numeric literals are used in many EDSLs. I also like George's proposal. Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science The University of Nottingham n...@cs.nott.ac.uk

Re: Quasi quoting

, because the operators may come from various external libraries that one really would like to use. The list comprehension interference is strictly confined to modules where quasiquoting is enabled.

Re: GADT question

is useful. I plan to tackle it in the next couple of months. Would this also address how plain old Algebraic Data Types and type classes work together? The issues seems related. Best, /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson School of Computer Science and Information Technology The University of Nottingham

Re: Using --make with -odir and hierarchical modules

libraries really rely on this, it would be nice to know that this is universally supported by all ar programs, linkers, compilers, etc. Alternatively, maybe one should reconsider how object files are named. /Henrik -- Henrik Nilsson Yale University Department of Computer Science [EMAIL PROTECTED
