FYI to Haskell WishList listeners - I've checked in support for hSelect
to the CVS repository. Code in ghc/lib/misc/Select.lhs, documentation
in ghc/docs/users_guide/libmisc.vsgml. As always, commits haven't been

i.e., give it

To those who use or know about random numbers and Haskell:
A couple of months ago, John Hughes sent me mail about a problem that
he had uncovered with the implementation of the Random library in Hugs.
He had been using the "split" function in an attempt to generate a
stream of random number

As an example, suppose you write a long program and you define:

A couple of months ago, I developed and implemented an extension to

Which ones? The Haskell report concentrates on the static semantics of
classes and instances. It looks like the dynamic semantics is expected
to be already understood by the
