[Haskell-cafe] Issue with lhs2TeX 1.17

2011-08-24 Thread Arnaud Bailly
Hello, I recently reinstalled (using cabal) lhs2TeX v 1.17 (Haskell Platform installation 2011.2.0, Windows XP SP2, MiKTeX 2.8) and I cannot run latex anymore on the .tex files produced. Any clues about this ? Did I forgot to install some package ? This is not clear from the documentation which see

The type signature liftEnum :: (Monad m, MonadTrans t) => Enumerator a m b -> Enumerator a (t m) b expands to: liftEnum :: (Monad m, MonadTrans t) => (Step a m b -> Iteratee a m b) -> Step a (t m) b -> Iteratee a (t m) b So you could implement it iff you can define: lower :: (Monad

The reason may be that you are not printing the result in your program. runhaskell script prints the result of the "main" computation by default. The compiled programs don't do that. You'll have to call "print" in your program to achieve the same. On 24 August 2011 13:45, Комар Максим wrote: > I

If your functions have the same type, then you can easily collect them in a data structure, say list, and fold that. For example: function :: String -> (String -> String) function "f1" = f1 function "f2" = f2 function "f3" = f3 runAUserSpecifiedComposition :: String -> F runAUserSpecifiedComposi
