I don't have the time to tackle these right now, but they're good small projects for anyone looking for something to contribute to GHC. - the :set something command in ghci feeds the ghc command line, but how can I figure out the current settings (especially paths and packages)? This is really a bug - and it's another thing that's been lurking on my ToDo list for a long time.

All it does is load all the 'name.haddock' binary interface dumps and stick the names into a FiniteMap for later lookup. It's a popular lambdabot command on the #haskell irc channel. lambdabot also has @info that calls ghci's :info command. I would very much like to see instance information in ghci. I haven't figured out a good way to do searching by type signature though, any suggestions? Also seems like integrating haddock and haskell-mode's haskell-doc should be pretty easy, I'll do that at some point if no one else has. Any other interesting dev-environment ideas/suggestions floating around? -- Shae Matijs Erisson - Programmer - http://www.ScannedInAvian.org/ I will, as we say in rock 'n' roll, run until the wheels come off, because I love what I do. -- David Crosby ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

I also would like to have the info on clases and instances in the :info interactive command. - Serge Mechveliani [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Thu, Jul 29, 2004 at 05:48:26PM +0100, Claus Reinke wrote: [..] in hugs, a simple :info type gives me the answer: Prelude :info Bool -- type constructor data Bool -- constructors: False :: Bool True :: Bool -- instances: instance Eq Bool instance Ord Bool instance Ix Bool instance Enum Bool instance Read Bool instance Show Bool instance Bounded Bool in fact, I can even ask by class, using :info class: Prelude :i Enum -- type class class Enum a where succ :: a - a pred :: a - a toEnum :: Int - a fromEnum :: a - Int enumFrom :: a - [a] enumFromThen :: a - a - [a] enumFromTo :: a - a - [a] enumFromThenTo :: a - a - a - [a] -- instances: instance Enum () instance Enum Char instance Enum Int instance Enum Integer instance Enum Float instance Enum Double instance Integral a = Enum (Ratio a) instance Enum Bool instance Enum Ordering [..] ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
