That is the escaped form of é. You have several options: 1) Use the utf8-string package for I/O 2) Use the text package for I/O (and set an encoding) 3) GHC 6.12.1 uses the system's locale for encoding; as such if your system normally lets you see accented characters then putStrLn, etc. will print them out. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic ivan.miljeno...@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
