Hi, Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong. I'm learning Haskell using the book real world haskell. It tells me to load programs and update cabal using '$' symbol but everytime I enter it tells me parse error on input '$'. The programs are taken from the book so there nothing wrong with them.What amI misssing? Regards John

It sounds like you are mistaking the unix command line prompt symbol (that is: $) for something you are supposed to type. E.g. If it says: $ cabal install then it means type: cabal install at the command line prompt. -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire
