Hi. What you can do is run cabal exec bash and then simply use `ghc -threaded site.hs` or any other command - the shell you'd launch with `cabal exec bash` will have the libraries from your sandbox in its environment.

This works if one removes the -threaded option e.g. cabal exec ghc site.hs

Is there a way to make cabal exec accept ghc options?

cabal exec hakyll-init my-site and this works, and I cd ./my-site but the next step specified in the tutorial I can't figure out how to work. It is: ghc --make -threaded site.hs

It fails because it cannot find the Hakyll module to import.

I am hoping to learn what the proper command would be in a sandbox environment, and

You already used it once: put `cabal exec` in front. (Also, you no longer need `--make` in current versions of ghc.)
