#8959: GHCi should honour UnicodeSyntax -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Fuuzetsu | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by int-e): I'm sorry I didn't find this while testing the release candidates. I did not expect such "simple" ghci queries to break, and besides lambdabot does not enable `UnicodeSyntax` by default, that's a customization for the one running on Freenode. My current "fix" for lambdabot to disable `UnicodeSyntax` for the two affected commands. This is the only sensible option because I do not want lambdabot to use the unicode symbols in its type signatures; in other words, fixing lambdabot properly (such that unicode syntax is allowed in the input) is not possible at this time. How would you feel about keeping the current behaviour by default, but adding flags `-fprint-unicode-syntax` and `-fno-print-unicode-syntax` to override the default, regardless of whether `UnicodeSyntax` is enabled or not? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8959#comment:17 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
