Hi,
In the Haskell98 report at http://haskell.org/onlinereport/lexemes.html section 2.2 has the rule:

   whitechar -> newline | vertab | space | tab | uniWhite

Does anyone know what a vertical tab is supposed to do?
Is there any reason to allow them as whitespace? (Does anyone in the universe actually use them?)

Thanks, Brian.
