Maybe you just don't realise how much we do need a new standard!

I don't know what others mean by it, but for me, it implies
standardizing existing practice, with possibly some conservative
redesign to get rid of any hysterical warts.
This is, BTW, what the C89 standard did

Well, what we already have is a lot of language extensions with
varying degrees of support across implementations. GHC is somewhat of
a standard in and of itself, and one thing that standardisation
efforts bring is a record of what exactly GHC is doing, thus allowing
for more and better

Folks,
Are there any examples on using STUArray and friends? I'm trying to
convert the following bit of code which uses deprecated features.
I don't understand the syntax needed to create a new double or float
array with newArray from Data.Array.MArray. I also don't yet
understand how to cast

Hi all,
I want to write a small functionto test whether an input is a String or not. For example,
isString::(Show a) =a -Bool
This function will return True if the input is a string and return False if not
Any of you have idea about that? Thanks in advance
isString::(Show a) =a -Bool
This function will return True if the input is a string and return False if
not
This is not particularly nicely - you certainly can't write it as
simple as the 'isString' function, and it will probably require type
classes etc, quite possibly with haskell extensions.
In GHC you can do this:
import Data.Typeable
isString :: (Typeable a) = a - Bool
isString x = typeOf x == typeOf (undefined::String)
Why do you want this? It's not the kind of operation one does very
often in Haskell.

Hi.
I now get the errror that the module NativeInfo is in the project
hdirect and in the library lang of ghc. Removing the files from the
hdirect project resulted in a ld error Main_16 not found (don't remember
exactly)..
If you use hdirect on win succesfully, can you tell me which ghc/
