The short answer is when you have a single quux. Then void quux is probably
more natural than quux >> return ().
Not having read hlint's code, my guess is that hlint is blindly flagging
instances of blahblah >> return (). Implementing this single quux condition
may only be a tweak away, and I'm inclined to think the maintainer would
happily accept the patch.
Nevertheless David has a good point about void not being in the prelude.
Also, too many void's in the code raises alarm bells for me.

It has to be exactly one of
1. vim folks get their work done faster, and so have time to be helpful
2. emacs folks are actually _employed_ and consequently have less free time
on their hands
j/k :)

I like haskell-mode quite a bit. But the divide does run deep indeed.
You can always run emacs in vi-mode. :)

Intellij IDEA is a great IDE. Its Vim bindings plugin is not entirely
stable though, or wasn't when I last used IDEA. AS far as large java IDEs
go IntelliJ is awesome. If their haskell mode is as good as their other
language toolings then it is probably pretty good.
I probably won't go there though. :-)

I don't dislike emacs. I'm largely ignorant of it. I just ignore it
really. The first unix editor I learned to use was vi, and I've never felt
the need to look elsewhere.
As I learn more languages I find that I want help with their associated
libraries, more than anything. Learning a language syntax is not so hard,
but it's generally not enough to create useful software. Using the
language to create useful software really means knowing all about the
libraries and frameworks built for use with the language.
As a haskell beginner, that's where I find I want the editor/IDE to help me
out. If emacs helps me then I might just give it a try. :-)

Probably it's not mentioned because the OP mentioned he's a long-term
Vim user. Anyway, Emacs is a wonderful OS, it just lacks a good
editor ;)

Yes, IDEA is amazing, but has anyone managed to get the Haskell plugin
working ? I never did... Is it still maintained. I mostly use eclipseFP
which is quite nice, although not as polished as for instance intellij
IDEA for scala or java.
best,

There are people that managed to get the plugin working on the latest
version, ( https://code.google.com/p/ideah/issues/detail?id=22 ) but I
didn't.
IIRC, what stopped me is a wrong version of ghc or libraries, and I
didn't try too much.
David.
