Is that so rare? For me it's pretty standard that the core modules _have_ to be loaded as object files, interpreting them would make things orders of magnitude slower (100× - 1000×), they'd be unusably slow. So in my opinion it's absolutely essential that modules can be loaded as object files. > There could be something to set in .ghci > for people who do like that behavior all the time, > perhaps.

But with it not being the default, I could live well. _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
