Dear Haskeller,

 

I have a little issue in using GHCi as follows:

 

===

Prelude> length "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

<interactive>:1:254:
    lexical error in string/character literal at character '\EOT'

===

 

It seems to me that GHCi doesn't allow me to type more than some specified length of a command.

Is this interpretation correct? How can I make it longer?

 

This issue is quite important at least to me. My tool is just a simple Haskell program. I don't like to add any extra interactive environment, but I like to just use GHCi as an interactive environment for my tool. I strongly believe that this ides is pervasive among many haskellers.

 

Thanks in advance for your help/feedback in advance.
