If you use Stack then you can add a .cabal file to your project that indicates what it depends on. Here's an example I use: https://github.com/JeffreyBenjaminBrown/montevideo/blob/master/mtv-util/mtv-... (It uses the `random` package too; if you search for "random" you'll find the dependencies.) Stack has global config options too: https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml_configuration/ which seems likely to offer the same capability; I don't know how to do it that way as I always work within a project with a cabal file.

I'm attempting to install and update the .yaml file so I don't have to run the command $ stack ghci --package random every single time I want to load a module that imports System.Random. Or maybe I need to use chocolatey?

No idea with stack, but with cabal is:

cabal install --lib random _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beginners
