That makes sense. Perhaps you should use latex style,
then use a quick script to change the begin and end lines to
markdown fences. It would be a one-liner in bash,
or a very simple Haskell program, for example.

Thanks. I wanted to use the fenced version like so.
```haskell myFunction :: Int -> String -- some code goes here ```
I find that typing with the Bird style, I get lots of '>' left behind at the end of lines causing syntax problems before I compile. It also makes it harder for me to reformat the code. For example, 'unindent block' no longer works on my editor.
Cheers,
Dimitri

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
