$ ghci :lGHCi, version 8.0.0.20160122: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loaded GHCi configuration from /home/callen/.ghci Prelude> :t ($) ($) :: forall (w :: GHC.Types.Levity) a (b :: TYPE w). (a -> b) -> a -> b As someone that's working on a book for beginners/intermediates and that mentions ($) early'ish, this is pretty disconcerting. Particularly as we're not going to explain Levity or TYPE. Is this intentional? My only ~/.ghci flag is fno-warn-type-defaults. Apologies if this is a mix-up on my part. --- Chris
