Almost complete beginner.
I just downloaded Haskell 32-bit for Mac from Haskell.org and am going through Learn You a Haskell. I tried to follow the instructions on
http://learnyouahaskell.com/modules#loading-modules
in particular
import qualified Data.Map as Map
which, following the instructions, I put in a .hs file which I attempted to load into GHCi with :l. I got
parse error on input `import'
I have no idea what the problem might be or what to do about it. Other imports have been successful, but after getting the above message I tried to "import qualified" other modules, always with the same error.
Try starting from a fresh file? I just tried the simplest thing I could think of to reproduce this, but it worked: jumba ~ $ echo "import qualified Data.Map as Map" >> test.hs jumba ~ $ echo "main = print \"Hello, World\"" >> test.hs jumba ~ $ runhaskell test.hs "Hello, World" jumba ~ $ ghci GHCi, version 7.4.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
