Package: ghc6
Version: 6.8.2-7
Severity: important

Hello,

Here is the transcript of a session with "ghci".

        $ ghci 
        GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
        Loading package base ... linking ... done.
        Prelude> :set editor "ed"
        Prelude> :edit /tmp/test.hs
        214
        stdin: Resource temporarily unavailable
        Prelude>

Setting the editor to "vi" or "nano" has an even worse effect of
starting an unusable editor session. It seems "ghci" sends an endless
sequence of characters to the editor without any keypresses from the
user.

Kapil.
