By the way, python does this by creating a temporary module from the docstring, then evaluating this. Is there a dynamic way in Haskell to evaulate a module? Or will I have to be content starting some sort of "subsession"... Which will make the doctest module less robust & portable. One idea would be just to produce a set of modules in the "core" doctest module. Then there would be a set of lightweight scripts for automating "produce & run" in various environments. But if there is a good "internal" way that I don't know about, I'm all ears. - Shaun _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
