That is true, but my experience is that when an error message perplexes me I need all the suggestions I can get from more error messages. Sometimes a Hugs error has helped me more than a GHC error, and sometimes the other way around. Type inference is complicated and doesn't know where your mistake is, so it may be best to point out several views of the problem in case one of them makes sense. (of course it could also be that I was writing programs that were too complicated for me to understand, as I was still learning good style in Haskell :)) Isaac -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF7fc7HgcxvIWYTTURArAFAKDGCu6KwtCLen/UBj0FcS7LdKabKgCgknms deZzzGy0uFDPMoXxJMLPVF4= =inId -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
