This'd be pretty easy. it may be great if such behavior enabled by some option, such as -force-recomp. in many cases, we need to run compiled code inside ghci how about such variant? d) when printing message about undefined symbol, add note about reloading sources: "Symbol `x` undefined; if it's a top-level symbol in some loaded module M, please reload this module source-wise: :load M.hs" and implement directive ":load M.hs" as interpreted loading of the module -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
