Hi All,
Is there a way to use literate haskell with GHC using Markdown but *not* using the Bird style for the code? It seems either one uses Bird style or has to put latex style \begin{code} markup (which markdown doesn't hide)
Those are the only two styles which GHC accepts.
In other words, is there a way to mark up the code in Markdown in a way that GHC understands without having to preprocess the file? I just wanted to write a .lhs file in markdown like I write a .hs file today.
If you are willing/able to use pandoc, it implements a special version of Markdown for .lhs files which understands Bird tracks. See http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/README.html#pandocs-markdown -Brent
