Please forgive me for taking this as an opportunity to rant about the
single misfeature of Haskell's layout syntax, which is how if/then/else
must be layed out. The problem is that the 'else' must be indented
further than the 'if', so that this:
if cond then
on_true
else
on_false
usually gives me a syntax error.
Other than this, I like layout so much that I have never actually used
the explicit {;}-notation.
