#9173: Better type error messages -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by thoughtpolice): I like this, and think the second set of output reads much, much better. Bonus points: use ANSI terminal colors to highlight some key words in the output, such as "Warning" or "Error" should they exist. Lennart also makes an observation about the way the Mu Haskell compiler handles this: https://pay.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/26tcrk/curious_with_a_bit_of_begin... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9173#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
