That sort of misses my point. Given the length of time I've been involved with it, I hardly need encouragement to use Haskell, but if even I find getting to the documentation off-putting, having to know a trick to do it isn't exactly going to draw the reluctant programmer away from its bad language habits. -- Jón Fairbairn [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.chaos.org.uk/~jf/Stuff-I-dont-want.html (updated 2007-05-07) _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
