A minimal read-eval loop as a way of seeing how to use the ghc api would be nice. > (Also... presumably I'd have to download some giant tarball and work out > how to open it.

It's not that scary :-) http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc/compiler/ghci/ Duncan _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
