You're on the right track by looking at the `template- haskell` source code. In particular, I think `showName'` is what needs to change, since that's what is responsible for printing out qualified `Name`s. It might be a simple matter of checking if a `Name` is in a set of special names (like `[]`, `(,)`, etc.) and printing it out unqualified if there's a match. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask on this ticket. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13776#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
