Could you add an example please?
Definitely. Source: {{{ {-# LANGUAGE UnicodeSyntax #-} module Example where (∈) = elem oops = 20 ∈ (10,20,30) }}} Output: {{{ [1 of 1] Compiling Example ( Example.hs, Example.o ) Example.hs:4:13: Couldn't match expected type `[a0]' with actual type `(t0, t1, t2)' In the second argument of `(<stderr>: commitBuffer: invalid argument (invalid character) }}} As you can see, it prints the error where it should have printed `∈`, and then immediately stopped printing, discarding any next messages.<br /> Same behavior on GHCi, and WinGHCi, of course. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9752#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
