Sorry, I was a bit unclear there. I know about the program and it depends on the library. >> However, it's a bit of an overspec'd package to link into the >> compiler, don't you think? > > I did not mean to modify the Compiler. Unliting is done by an external > program. This already allows you to customize unliting [2]. Absolutely true, but I came across this in the GHC-source itself. I would like the GHC-source to be literateable (not a work, but you know what I mean) in markdown. Now, the GHC-source could be build with the same mechanism for having unlitting done by an external program, but that would make the build process depend on a very large library (through pandoc-unlit, depending on pandoc), which, by the way, has a GPL license. Anyhow, although absolutely true for one's own usage, this does not seem like an alternative to allow markdown (or reStructuredText) lhs in the GHC source.
