My apologies if this is an extremely elementary question, but I am having difficulties in importing the Data.Char library in Hugs. In GHCi, the command "import Data.Char" works correctly, as follows: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- GHCi, version 6.10.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
