OTOH, of course, they don't support type inference. so in one environment we need to explicitly declare types while in other environment we need to explicitly specify lifting operations second. unfortunately, current Haskell libs defined in terms of IO monad, not MonadIO. while this issue, i hope, will be addressed in future, i write programs right now :) -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
