Re: Use of tab characters in indentation-sensitive code

Why has HTML been out for many many years, and yet programming languages still use plain ASCII text exclusively? Don't we have similar needs as other electronic document manipulators? Someone should decide on a subset of HTML that is intended for programming. Then we could use *actual* indentatio

ANNOUNCE: Cryptographic Library for Haskell

I would like to annouce a new release of the Haskell Cryptographic Library (1.1.2). See http://www.haskell.org/crypto/ReadMe.html for more details. This library collects together existing Haskell cryptographic functions. This release contains MD5 and now works with Hugs (November 2003 version). D
