Yea, Hugs tells me:
ERROR (filepath):3 - Syntax error in instance head (constructor expected)
But since I'm trying to understand Haskell and have nothing particular in mind with this program, I'm not stressed finding a solution for this. I'm happy if the code is principally correct.
Ah, I see, you are using Hugs. As I mention in my other email, GHC has an extension (FlexibleInstances) to allow this. Hugs might support this extension as well (I am not sure) but it unfortunately doesn't mention the possibility in the error message, like GHC does. -Brent
