I don't know whether this is a problem with stack or with GHCI. But suppose you've got a bunch of modules loaded, and the prompt is hard to read, so you set it to something simpler like "> ". If you then use ":{" to enter a multi-line block of code, the module names appear again at the prompt, making the block you're entering very difficult to read. Here's an example: ) Ok, 55 modules loaded.
