The operator "-->" certainly is a very good symbol for many things. I think the reason it isn't used more has less to do with weather "--" is useful in symbols, and more to do with the fact that "-- " is de-facto used as the line-comment and people try to avoid naming their operators in ways which may confuse people (and syntax highlighing in some editors :-)) /S -- Sebastian Sylvan +46(0)736-818655 UIN: 44640862 _______________________________________________ Haskell-prime mailing list [email protected] http://haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-prime
