 {{{
 module Qwer where

 a = ({-# LANGUAGE #-})

 main :: IO ()
 main = print (if True then () else ())
 }}}
 if {{{a = ({-# #-})}}} then GHC compiles with a warning\\

 {{{
 qwer.hs:3:6: warning: [-Wunrecognised-pragmas] Unrecognised pragma
   |

   |      ^^^
 Ok, modules loaded: Qwer.
 }}}
 if you write {{{a = ({-# LANGUAGE #-})}}} without writing the name GHC
 compiles the file without specifying a warning.\\
