have a language extension TrailingCommas (or something) to enable the extension For clarification: are you overruling the "do we sneak it in HEAD or use pragma(s)"-vote and telling me to do the latter?
If we can sneak it into HEAD (this is @ you Johan, too), I suggest that someone applies my patches to make import and export lists support leading commas (presently they only support trailing commas, per the report) -- and following this I can just send a bunch of "Permit leading/trailing ',' in Foo" patches to Phabricator, and you guys can bikeshed over there about which ones you actually want to commit. ;-) If I am to go down the pragma route, I guess I can make a RudundantCommas pragma or something like that, that implements trailing commas for imports/exports, and leading/trailing commas for the suggestions in this thread. I'm +1 on the GHC HEAD route, but I'm not exactly violently opposed to the pragma route either. - -- Alexander alexander@plaimi.net https://secure.plaimi.net/~alexander -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iF4EAREIAAYFAlQhHRoACgkQRtClrXBQc7U0WAD+Ixdah2pHMoeLiTGQJf0JLwDR I2dxYS7yaKyOHuHcUuEBAKh6RQmmpztz82yt/KCw0n2md3pf4n8yc5tt9s9k3FW3 =FfHX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
