When I want to lift an infix function into an applicative functor I use 'liftA2' -- I just call it 'up' for the sake of brevity. But I always have to add some parenthesis since I don't know how to tell Haskel that `up op` shall have the same fixity as `op` has. Is there a way to do that?
No, there isn't. Also, `up op` is not valid syntax -- only names may go in between `backticks`, not expressions in general.
Really not? Ouh, probably I should try to test compile my source a little bit more often.
You may be interested in the InfixApplicative package:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/InfixApplicative
although it still doesn't solve the problem of fixity.
I am, thanks. At least it solves my problem the way I thought I would have solved it already ;-)
