Re: [Haskell-cafe] reasons why Template Haskell does not propose something similar to Python exec() or eval()

There's a proposalfor adding a proper Haskell QuasiQuoter as part of template-haskell. Until then, as others have noted your best option is the haskell-src-meta package, but be aware that this uses a separate

Hi everybody, I continue to learn and test Template Haskell (one more time thanks to John Lato for his post at: http://www.mail-archive.com/haskell-cafe@haskell.org/msg106696.html that made me understand a lot of things). I have a question about the way Template Haskell is working. Why Templat
