I just wanted to add a piece of evidence for why I would prefer `Foo.th.hs` over `Foo.hs.th` or `Foo.th`: it allows tools/scripts to find the file when searching for `*.hs`. Of course, tools/scripts can be configured, so this can be worked around. But I find this issue slightly more influential than the tab-completion issue -- I'm accustomed to not having tab completion of the extension. Whatever the decision, I'd be happy to have this feature. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8624#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
