It'd be useful if `--info` showed this. Some use cases: - When you have multiple binaries of the same program you can see how each one is compiled. Useful when debugging. - Sometimes we instruct users saying "compile with this and run with that". This steps becomes easier with `-with-rtsopts` because with that the user doesn't have to pass runtime parameters. But currently we don't have an easy way check if the users did it right. If `+RTS --info` showed this information we could say "look at the info, you should see this and that". -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15261 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
