Hi
The books says that Hugs will show the prompt 'Prelude>' initially until a script is loaded. The version of Hugs installed on my system shows initially the prompt 'Hugs>'
Whether it says "Hugs" or "Prelude" isn't important, you can just ignore this. In Hugs> module the Prelude is in scope. As for the primitive operations, you shouldn't use them, ever. If you want to add two things use (+). They are merely an internal implementation detail, which I guess should never have been available to the user in the first place, and now isn't. I guess its a shame that a book that is only 2 years old is out of date, perhaps you might want to contact the authors to give them this information, so they can put it on a web page or something and save other people this confusion.
